Etymology

Category:English terms derived from Proto-Indo-European#LIBRARY Category:English terms derived from the Proto-Indo-European root *lewbʰ- (cut off)#LIBRARY

From Middle English Category:English terms inherited from Middle English#LIBRARY Category:English terms derived from Middle English#LIBRARY librarie, from Anglo-Norman Category:English terms derived from Anglo-Norman#LIBRARY librarie, from Old French Category:English terms derived from Old French#LIBRARY librairie, from Latin Category:English terms derived from Latin#LIBRARY librarium (“bookcase, chest for books”), from librarius (“concerning books”), from liber (“the inner bark of trees; paper, parchment, book”), probably derived from a Proto-Indo-European Category:English terms derived from Proto-Indo-European#LIBRARY base *leub(ʰ)- (“to strip, to peel”). Displaced native Middle English bochous, bokhus (literally “book house”), from Old English bōchūs (compare bookhouse).

Romance cognates often mean “bookshop” instead: French librairie, Italian libreria, Spanish librería, Romanian librărie and Portuguese livraria. This is a relatively recent innovation (16th century in French), which ended up displacing the earlier sense.

The non-RP UK pronunciation /ˈlaɪ.bɹi/ (whence the eye dialect spelling libry) exhibits haplology. It generally isn't stigmatized unlike the nonstandard American pronunciation, respelled as libary, which is often associated with illiteracy, an association that may be exacerbated by the word's definition as a place to engage in literacy.
