Would you use the word old school to mean old? As in old school music, old school vine videos and so on...
Also, is my question worded naturally?

More than simply "old", the term, "old achool" refers to a time in the past when something (music, vine videos, etc) had a different style or flavor to them typical of that period.

I see, so old books can also be simply old and worn books, but old school books mean they have a different unique style comparing to now style, right?

@MooCat technically that's correct but I've never heard the term old school" used to describe books, it would more be used to describe the style of writing, or the language. Also " old school" is more of a slang expression
