About the Book black outline icon
An open book stands upright with both halves curving outward from a centered spine, and several loose page edges fan below each cover to suggest depth and thickness. The pose reads as active reading and study rather than a closed volume on a shelf. Use it for reading lists, e-learning course cards, library catalog filters, documentation links, school websites and bookstore navigation menus.
Two large symmetrical page shapes dominate the composition, with three thinner arcs stacked beneath them for the remaining sheets, keeping the silhouette wide and stable. It sits naturally beside bookmark, graduation cap and notebook marks in the same set. Give it a little extra horizontal padding, since the fanned pages spread wider than most square icons.
This is the black outline version of the book icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
