Q. (See question above) Can one get undressed in front of closed printed seforim dealing with Torah topics written in English or other languages?
A. Sefer Chasidim (915) writes that one should be extremely careful in honoring seforim.
Shev Yaakov (55), Massas Binyamin and many others rule that the above applies equally to printed seforim.
Horav Shlomo Miller’s Shlit’a opinion is that it applies also to proper Torah seforim written in other languages.
