What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it.

One glance at [a book] and you hear the voice of another person - perhaps someone dead for thousands of years. Across the millennia, the author is speaking, clearly and silently, inside your head, directly to you ... Books permit us to voyage through time.

- Carl Sagan, Cosmos

There is no way to stop the passage of time, and there is no way to prevent a book eventually going the way of all flesh. If you lock it away, and no one ever spends any time appreciating it, it's still going to turn to dust like the rest of us. We do what we do at the bookshop to make sure it survives until it gets to its next owner. All anyone can do is take reasonable precautions. Keep the books away from fire. Don't throw them in a puddle. And remember to take delight in them.
