About the Books black outline icon
Three closed hardcover books rest one on top of another, the top cover angled slightly and two short title lines marked on it, with the page block edges visible along each spine. The pile suggests study, reference and accumulated reading. Use it for library catalogs, e-learning course cards, bookstore category tiles, school and university sites and reading list widgets.
The covers overhang the pages just enough to read as hardbacks, and the stack leans a little so it does not look like plain rectangles. It pairs with open book, graduation cap and bookmark icons in the library; at 16 px the title lines drop out, so prefer 24 px or larger.
This is the black outline version of the books icon: even, monoline strokes that stay crisp at small sizes and suit clean, minimal interfaces, wireframes and light backgrounds.
