Verbum Bonum: Liber

One of the good words I've learned in Latin is liber, book (not to be confused with the adjective lîber, free). Here it is in some of the homework sentences (let me know if you can't see the accents):

Multî librî antîquî propter sapientiam cônsiliumque erant magnî.
Many ancient books were important because of their wisdom and counsel.

Glôria bonôrum librôrum semper manêbit.
The glory of good books will always endure.

Multî Rômânî magnôs librôs Graecôrum antîquôrum laudâbant.
Many Romans used to praise the great books of the ancient Greeks.
