On the books? (8)

I believe the answer is:

literary

(Other definitions for literary that I've seen before include "Concerning writing of artistic value" , "Relating to books and other writings" , "Relating to good creative writing" , "Relating to writing of artistic merit (8)" , "Concerning books" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
