Bibliobibuli

(n): Those who read too much.

Coined by H.L. Menken in 1957: “There are people who read too much: bibliobibuli. I know some who are constantly drunk on books, as other men are drunk on whiskey or religion. They wander through this most diverting and stimulating of worlds in a haze, seeing nothing and hearing nothing”.
