Best Answer

Some of the ways a book will show signs of water damage are: pages stick together, the cover or pages are warped, the pages are discolored, the book has an odor to it or you can see mold growth.

There are ways to conserve books if you get to the book in time. Typically, it is a commonly held belief that you have 48 hours to conserve a water damaged book. There is information on the web or you can consult a professional book conservator.
