And there's now another book for the catalogue, Rhymes For Little People (http://b2mem.livejournal.com/291366.html).
This one is definitely by Maglor, and carries great sentimental value to Elrond. Over time, it becomes one of the Library of Imladris' most popular works and is copied hundreds of times (though probably without the lovely hand illumination of the original).
It is one of the first books added to the library once it was built, donated from Elrond's personal collection, and one of the last books to leave it, as Elrond passed it on to his sons and their heirs, so it left the Library only when they left Imladris for good (whether that is to go to Valinor, or to die, I leave as an exercise in speculation for the reader).
