Where people decide to use both words and action by hitting someone with a book really, really hard; because being bonked on the head with a few thousand pages' worth of hard-bound literature hurts something fierce (the fact that watching someone get conked on the head with a book is inherently funny helps too).
Also an alternative melee weapon for the Squishy Wizard, White Mage, Black Mage, and other magical or scholarly types if the writer decides that a Magic Staff is too fearsome. After all, what better way to make the hapless wizard even more hapless at close-range than to have them trying to kill the slathering, three-headed, pointy-clawed, saber-toothed, flaming beast of hell by whacking it repeatedly with a leather-bound tome?
Often, this will be prompted by a character saying, "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never hurt me," or something of the sort. For additional humor value, the book that's used as a weapon will often have a title that's thematically appropriate to the user, the target, and/or the situation at hand. Bonus points if it's being used by a Badass Bookworm, established or developing.
A Sub-Trope of Improbable Weapon User. Related to Useful Book. See Bookshelf Dominoes, for when bookshelves are a weapon. If the book is only used to show the character's angry, see Book Snap. A softer version of Throw a Barrel at It.
Note that this is for books being used to physically attack. For books used offensively by casting spells from it, see Spell Book; although the two can overlap if you physically bonk people with a spellbook. For the paper of books being used as a supernatural weapon, see Paper Master. For books with dangerous words in them, see Brown Note or Deadly Book. For the other meaning of "throw the book at them",note Which means "Prosecute to the fullest extent of the law" see the courtroom tropes on the Crime and Punishment Tropes page; it's been known to overlap, especially in comedies and especially when a Joker Jury is involved. No relation to trying to walk with a Book on the Head.

Poor old Albert in Mort discovers just how painful this trope can be when his charges drop part of Albert's "biography" (the book in Death's library that contains his life story) on top of his head. And since he's a wizard who's stayed alive for hundreds of years by living in Death's domain, Albert's got a whole shelf to himself full of very long and heavy books.

In the .hack//G.U. Games, Shadow Warlocks (like Gaspard and Sakubo) use a weird floating pedestal with an open book as a weapon. It's a floating Spell Book for their special attacks, but their weak regular attacks involve grabbing the pedestal / handle and swinging the whole contraption like a club.

The spine of a sufficiently thick mass-market paperback might as well be a piece of petrified wood, as it's very tightly-bound (glued) paper. Clock someone upside the head with a paperback version of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, The Silmarillion, or Dune, and they might well fall victim to a VERY substantial concussion. Ironically, the spine of a hardcover book softens the blow in comparison, as there's a piece of cardboard and some air between the paper and the head.
The most common size and binding for the average manga makes it nicely hand-sized when gripped opposite to the spine, and just thin and strong enough for effective aimed strikes to areas such as the wrist. If you're already holding a book, there are much worse choices for an Improvised Weapon.

Ranma ½: In an anime-only scene, Ranma hangs upside-down outside Akane's window to check up on her. Despondent, Akane throws a couple books at her - which Ranma dodges deftly - but then hefts a much larger one that smacks spine-first on the redhead's face, stunning her long enough for Akane to follow up with a barbell.

Humorously used in an episode of The Simpsons. Homer is trying to think of a way to get out of jail when Hans Moleman comes by with a book cart. Homer picks up a book on digging tunnels and says that the book gives him an idea. He then knocks out Moleman by hitting him with the book and runs out the open cell door.
In another episode, Cletus tries to crack a turtle's shell with a heavy book, saying "Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris".

Some cartoons featuring a cat waking a character up at night have the character throwing a book (say, The Thin Man) at That Poor Cat, but the book's sequel is thrown back at him (thus, The Thin Man Returns). Such cartoons include Porky's Badtime Story and its remake, Tick Tock Tuckered.
In From Hare To Heir, Yosemite Sam institutes the "nose in the book" penalty on his accountant.
In the Wartime Cartoon Brother Brat, a Rosie the Riveter type leaves her baby in Porky's care, along with a book on child-rearing for help. After following the advice fails to control the unruly kid, she shows Porky the correct way of using the book - as a spanking paddle.

Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City: Books are a weapon type in the game. Interestingly, while the character art presents them as the Zodiac's weapon, any character can equip and use books... probably because it doesn't take much training to smack people around with one.

Tales Series:
Claus from Tales of Phantasia will use his books as a weapon if he doesn't have enough mana to summon something, an enemy is too close, or he is told not to use magic.
Hitting people with Rita's spellbook is a possible melee option in Tales of Vesperia as well.

In Okage: Shadow King, Cloud Cuckoolander Kisling is a Squishy Wizard whose weapons consist of scientific books. While he mostly uses them for magic, he can also use them for physical attacks—not that it's recommended, as his strength is far lower than his arcane skill.

Wagnaria!!: Souta's sister Kazue is a lawyer with a habit of using quite large legal texts as weapons. Souta at one point outright says that Kazue became a lawyer precisely because then she'd have an excuse to carry around law books to use as weapons.

Used by name on Arrested Development, both figuratively and literally.
In the episode "Altar Egos", a flashback has young Michael playing the prosecutor in the school play The Trial of Captain Hook and requesting the judge to do this (in song).
In the following episode, "Justice Is Blind", adult Michael actually does throw a book at Maggie Lizer to prove she's only pretending to be blind. Unfortunately, she's been temporarily blinded for real and the book connects.

In Riviera: The Promised Land, Fia can use a book to heal the party, while Cierra will use it to cast a spell on the enemy. Other characters will simply opt to throw the book for damage.

The Cracked article "5 Things Movies Don't Tell You About Mental Institutions" included an anecdote where the co-author of the piece found herself being harassed by a creepy guy who whispered to any women he passed that he was going to rape her at night. One day, he suddenly decided to barge into the co-author's room uninvited. Thankfully, she was not shy about being violent when in danger and was reading one of the later, and more importantly, thicker Harry Potter books. So, after the guy refused to leave despite her screaming at him, pushing him out, and threatening to hurt him, she socked him one right in the face and proceeded to beat him with the Doorstopper until nearby orderlies heard the commotion, separated them, and put the guy under stricter supervision.

Discworld
Poor old Albert in Mort discovers just how painful this trope can be when his charges drop part of Albert's "biography" (the book in Death's library that contains his life story) on top of his head. And since he's a wizard who's stayed alive for hundreds of years by living in Death's domain, Albert's got a whole shelf to himself full of very long and heavy books.
Death himself is buried under a pile of books in The Last Continent upon asking for a list of dangerous creatures of XXXX (the setting's counterpart to Australia, complete with ridiculously dangerous wildlife). He decides it would be easier to ask for a list of safe creatures of XXXX, whereupon a tiny piece of paper flutters down reading "some of the sheep".
In Guards! Guards!, Commander Vimes of the City Watch orders Constable Carrot to "throw the book" at a perpetrator. The comedically literal-minded Carrot obeys. Since the book weighs about ten pounds and the criminal is standing near a ledge, the criminal is knocked over the edge and falls to his death.
Shawn Ogg (Lancre's standing army; except when he's lying down) in Lords and Ladies is trying to learn martial arts from a book, and then, when push comes to shove, ends up whacking the enemy with the book.
Another lethal Discworld book: How to Kille Insects, which is about three thousand pages long; presumably if all else fails, one could use the book to squash insects. In Men at Arms, the Librarian whacks Cuddy over the head with this book so hard, his helmet gets stuck.

Soul Nomad & the World Eaters. The Clerics, while in the front row, will hit the opponent with their holy book. A useless attack, but worth watching purely for a good laugh. If you don't put your clerics in the front row to see this in action, fear not, because a Cleric Gatekeeper at Zazana uses this same attack to keep a noisome intruder from going into town — one who goes by the name of Odie.

Soul Eater:
The Maka Chop, a purely comedic attack, apparently imitating Death's "Death Chop" which leaves a similar mark, because Death's hands are the same rough shape as a thick book. This becomes a plot point when Maka does the Maka Chop on someone when they desperately needed a certain Tome of Eldritch Lore, and the Eldritch Location they were really does summon out of Hammerspace.
In Soul Eater Not!, Tsugumi and Anya play a game of janken where the winner beats the loser in the head with a rolled-up newspaper and the loser has to try and block with a book, but when Tsugumi loses she fumbles and drops it on her own head.

In Retro Chill, Galaxoid tosses a planet field guide at Rupert. It doesn't do much, but its contents reveal (to them, anyway) that Calvin is not the Earth's leader.

Codex Alera:
Towards the end of the first book, Furies of Calderon, the resident Obstructive Bureaucrat is mentioned to have bludgeoned what is strongly implied to be a terror bird to death with his accounts ledger saving himself and some childrend.
In the prologue of First Lord's Fury the Canim Warmaster Varg cuts off a ritual-master's attempts to kill him with Blood Magic by hitting him in the throat with a thrown copy of Julius Caesar's Commentarii de Bello Gallico.

In Pathfinder the Living Grimoire archetype of the inquisitor hits people with their deity's holy book, as well as using it as a Spell Book.
The Scrollmaster archetype of the wizard is a slight variant, using magic scrolls as slashing weapons and shields and getting bonuses to casting spells from scrolls.

Not in Sunset Shimmer Is Mad About Everything itself except as backstory, but in many of the other stories in its continuity, Sunset Shimmer is very fond of using books, scrolls, and especially newspapers as weapons. Depending on the story, it is played for laughs (eg, A Newspaper Solves Everypony's Problem) or for drama (eg, The Beard with a Jerk-Ass Hanging off of It).

Oleander of Them's Fightin' Herds carries a Tome of Eldritch Lore that's used in many of her attacks to cast dark magic. Given that the book is almost as big as she is, an equal number of attacks have her just smacking them with it to roughly the same effect.

Servant × Service: this is Yamagami's favoured method of attacking Hasebe whenever he gets onto her nerves. In the manga, when Taishi complained about Yamagami attacking people with work documents, she replied there was only waste paper in those folders; which means she specifically prepared those folders to hit people with.

In Ghostbusters: The Video Game, you spend one stage inside a public library. Many of the supernatural forces pitted against you involve books of some sort: ranging from Book Bats (possessed books that fly at you) to Paper Constructs and Book Centurions (paper and books that collect into a shape to attack you) to Book Golems (hundreds of books collected into a giant that chases you around).

While paper is the ammunition of a Paper-User in Read or Die and R.O.D the TV (thus any book can be sacrificed for an attack), special mention goes to Anita in ROD the TV when she flung a copy of the original Dracula at a vampire-like villain across the room without using her powers with enough force to break his nose (and fling him backwards; setting off his sonic disrupter on himself).

Touhou Project: Patchouli Knowledge, the Elementalist Badass Bookworm, carries no weapons, ever... so in Scarlet Weather Rhapsody, which is a fighting game, when people get near her, she is forced to rely on her trusty tomes to smack people's faces away from her and back in range of her more explosive spells. These book attacks are also surprisingly strong, for being wielded by an anemic, asthmatic mage.

Final Fantasy:
Final Fantasy Tactics A2 has books as one weapons type, and you do clonk people on the head if you use a melee attack. Makes a really satisfying sound too...
The weapon of choice for Scholars in Final Fantasy III. Like all weapons in this game, they can be Dual Wielded. Makes a highly satisfying "whump" noise on contact, too.
While characters' artwork in Final Fantasy Tactics Advance have a variety of weapons in their hands, from large swords to cool rods to a simple wooden bow, Montblanc carries a book. Unfortunately, books couldn't be equipped in that game though.
Speaking of throwing books, Final Fantasy Tactics also allows you to do just that, literally, via the Ninja class (the Mediator/Orator class has books for weapons, though they read from it to attack so they don't count), which has the ability to throw almost any weapon in the game. Thrown weapons always do damage based on the weapon's attack power, even when that doesn't make any logical sense (as is the case with books, whose attack power isn't based on physically attacking).
While the Arcanists, Scholars, and Summoners of Final Fantasy XIV normally use their grimoires as Spell Books, getting up close and initiating auto-attack will cause them to smack enemies upside the head with the book's spine.

In Magic: The Gathering, we have a Wizarding School known as Strixhaven University, among which is a campus called Lorehold...basically a school of Adventurer Archaeologist-type students. Among Lorehold's student body, you have a lot of Scrollbashers and Tomewielders who, if they're not using the spells written in ancient texts, they are literally smacking their enemies across the face with very heavy books.

Nageki Fujishiro of Hatoful Boyfriend has been known in the manga and the Drama CD to throw books at people being overly disruptive or disrespectful to the books when in the library. Ryouta lampshades this by saying hitting people with books will hurt the books too - especially since Nageki says someone defiling books in front of him a second time will be hit with the corners. ...In the games themselves, he's rather more shy.

Poindexter surmised that the book had an adverse effect on the Master Cylinder's circuitry and the rest of the army went down with it because it was the source of their power. Felix believes that it was the power of good in the book that did the job.

Shadow and Bone. In "The Heart is an Arrow", the Crows decide to get out of town by stealing General Kirigan's carriage. Jesper opens the carriage door to find David Kostyk reading a book. Jesper grins and says hello, upon which a panicked David throws the book at Jesper's head and scrambles out of the other side of the carriage, only to get whacked across the face by Kaz's cane and knocked out. Even funnier? A Freeze-Frame Bonus shows that the book is actually a Ravkan "translation" of Shadow & Bone.

Books are the weapon of choice for thirteen-year-old rebel militia leader Tamika Flynn of Welcome to Night Vale. Usually fired from a slingshot. Despite living in a town where students are regularly provided firearms by paramilitary government agencies (and often have to use them against the horrors of everyday life), Tamika and her "book club" are among the most effective combatants around.
It probably helps that certain books, like the hardback edition of The Awakening by Kate Chopin, are apparently sold with things like teargas canisters attached to the back cover.

Monster: Done in an effective but realistic way: Christof was reading when Eva jumped him; after she shoots his ear off and still has a gun trained on him, he turns the tables by throwing his book at her, throwing her off-balance for long enough to disarm her and wrestle her to the floor. It was only thanks to Tenma's timely arrival that she survived.

Ragnarok Online:
The MMORPG has a vast variety of book-type weapons for priests and sages. They're more effective (And amusing) for direct combat than rods and staves but tend to be less effective at boosting spell damage. The Sage class line in particular specializes in wielding books, having the ability to cast while book slapping, along with causing spells of their choosing to randomly go off with each hit.
Star Gladiators actually attack enemies physically. Not with the books, no, though they equip them as weapons. They kick the enemy to death and seem to use the books they've equipped as some sort of manual or something rather than as actual weapons.

Speaking of throwing books, Final Fantasy Tactics also allows you to do just that, literally, via the Ninja class (the Mediator/Orator class has books for weapons, though they read from it to attack so they don't count), which has the ability to throw almost any weapon in the game. Thrown weapons always do damage based on the weapon's attack power, even when that doesn't make any logical sense (as is the case with books, whose attack power isn't based on physically attacking).

In one Ed, Edd n Eddy episode, the Eds (read: Double D) are trying to figure out how to get the especially amorous Kankers off their backs. After watching Rolf using a smaller rock to break down bigger rocks, he comes up with the analogy that "only a rock can break a rock" (annoying Eddy) and notes that to win, they'll use reverse psychology. Of course, when Double D pulled out the textbook on the subject, Eddy assumed they were going to hit the Kankers with it.

Kingdom Hearts:
Ordinarily, Goofy uses shields as his Improbable Weapon. However, one of The Heartless enemies is a living book called a Bookmaster. They sometimes Randomly Drop inert versions of themselves called Akashic Record. What does Goofy do with what possibly might be a record of the mind of God or the universal consciousness? Hit people with it. The Bookmaster's Underground Monkey variant, the Runemaster, also drops a stronger version of the Akashic Record creatively named the Akashic Record+.
Organization XIII's Master of Illusion, Zexion, has a lexicon as his weapon. He uses it both for magic and good, ol' physical beating.
In Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, there is an Optional Boss Unversed in the Mirage Arena called the Mimic Master, which wields a tome that it can use to fire Yin-Yang Bomb beams at the heroes, create clones of them, set it on fire to attack them, or just plain whack them with it.

Babylon 5 does this in one episode late in the series. G'Kar, having unwillingly acquired followers after writing a book, uses the book to teach one unthinking follower an object lesson. "If the book is holy and I am holy, then I must help you to become closer to thoughts of the Universe. Put your face in the book." Despite the follower's nervousness, he finally does as he is asked. The predictable happens with a satisfying slap, followed by the sound of the follower groaning in pain.

Robin in Super Smash Bros. normally uses his/her spell books as, well, spell books. But true to Fire Emblem mechanics, they can only be used so many times before they break, at which point Robin will automatically toss it aside or drop it. It can be grabbed again then thrown at opponents to deal damage and knockback rivaling that of a smash attack, and actually hurts more than the alternative improvised throwing weapon of a discarded Levin Sword.
