Book of law!

===============================================

Answer: lex libris does not mean book of law, but "the law to, for,with by means of or in books", which makes little sense (lex being in the nominative singular case and librisis the ablative or dative plural).

Perhaps the question is really asking about the term ex libris, which means "from the books [of]", which is commonly used on modern bookplates. Bookplates are decorated paper labels pasted in the inside front cover of books to show ownership, usually with the name inscribed below the Latin phrase.
