Omnibus or Anthology?
Take two books, each of which is an anthology. Reprint their contents in a single bound volume. Is the result an omnibus or an anthology?

Re: Omnibus or Anthology?
Usually, an omnibus is multiple books by one author, while an anthology is a collection of works (poetry, short stories, songs) by different authors. So two anthologies are another anthology.
