PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an adhesive which has various kinds of excellent dispersion stability and gives fiber products, such as nonwoven fabrics or impregnated paper, having excellent wet strengths. SOLUTION: This adhesive for treating fibers comprises the emulsion of a homopolymer comprising one kind of monomer units selected from the group consisting of acrylic ester-based monomer units, methacrylic ester-based monomer units, aromatic vinyl-based monomer units and conjugated diene-based monomer units or a copolymer containing one or more kinds of monomer units selected from the monomer unit group as a main component. The emulsion is dispersed and stabilized with a water-soluble polymer compound which contains alcoholic hydroxy groups and a weight-average mol. wt. of >=2,000. Therein, at least a part of the water-soluble polymer compound which contains alcoholic hydroxyl group is grafted to the homopolymer or copolymer in a grafting rate of 0.5 to 30 wt.%.
