Thomas, writing in the introduction of the 1889 edition of ''Philobiblon'', states that this is based on an incorrect reading.}} – 14 April 1345), also known as Richard Aungerville or Aungervyle, was an English priest, teacher, bishop, writer, and bibliophile. He was a patron of learning and one of the first English collectors of books.
