There's no standard design for bookplates. Books on typography often
use bookplates to show the imagination of designers!

I don't think that will help, because bookplates don't change from
book to book.

That would rather depend on whether the books all belong to the same person,
or whether the labels are for multiple copies of a book for a variety of
people (members of a school class?)

The question said that the labels were for "This Book Belongs To" and not
"This Book Belongs To ducksrusmrducks"

Either way labels - merged or otherwise - will work.

Mr. Daniels,

Who said anything about bookplates or books on typograhpy? The OP
asked for a label template that happened to have the text "This Book
Belongs To"

Again, if you don't know the answer (you rarely ever do) then it is OK
to leave the question for those who do. In this case Mr. Graham
Mayor.

I don't think it's unreasonable to interpret a label that says "This Book
Belongs To" as being a bookplate. Yes, it's possible that the OP meant to
put the label on the outside of the book, but the inside is what I also
assumed, and that would be a bookplate. There is in fact a bookplate
template at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT101467571033.
There are also bookplates for schoolbooks at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...T101467571033;
I'm guessing that these are intended for use in a single teacher's classroom
library.

There's one that actually says "THIS BOOK BELONGS TO" (with a flower design)
at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...T101467571033;
the same design in B&W is at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/te...CT101467571033

I found these by googling for "bookplate template," which also turns up many
more such, including one from Avery. A Google Images search is even more
productive.

Ms. Barnhill,

Who said anyting was unreasonable? Call it whatever you like As is often
the case Mr. Daniels was wrong. The OP posted looking for a template and
not Mr. Daniels' erroneous statement that one doesn't exist or for what
books on typograhpy may have to say about them. He didn't know the answer.
Since he didn't and you did, the perhhaps he should have left the question
for you.

See my web site http://gregmaxey.mvps.org
for an eclectic collection of Word Tips.

Subcommander mini-max is making up lies and fantasies about me again.

I never said such a template doesn't exist.

I implied that there would be no point in such a template, because
bookplates are one-off things.

I'm not responsible for the fact that subcommander mini-max doesn't
know what a bookplate is or is for (and that ducksrusmrducks may not
know the usual name for what he's looking for, but it was fully
identifiable from his description "This Book Belongs To book label".
Moreover, since in my response I supplied the usual name for what he
was looking for, if he still wanted such a template he would be able
to search for it and, as Suzanne found, find some.)

The world would be a much better place if subcommander mini-max would
simply never again look at any posting from me (and would stop sending
me emails).

In this case what you're missing is that what the OP is asking for is not a
template for creating multiple different but similar documents (as you might
with, say, a report template) but a template that includes a design. The
templates I pointed to online are of this type. They include graphics and
layout, requiring only that the user add a name. So in this sense, templates
are available and are useful to those (like me) who have only minimal design
skills.
