Was about to say exactly that. Throwing it around, flicking through it like a child's animation flick book.
Current studies show that the use of gloves while handling books has inadvertently caused more damage than it prevents. The current international standard is “clean, dry hands”.
Additionally, cotton gloves can trap dirt and oils, while latex or nitrile gloves can accumulate moisture.
