I don't think it is a termite, but it could be a silver fish. So many people blame moths for the holes they find in their clothes, but the silver fish is worse. Here are some pics for comparison.

Here is an article all about silverfish and how to get rid of them.

It sounds like a silverfish. It has lots of legs, silver or white and moves fast. It likes books, cardboard boxes where it breeds and spreads. They don't hurt you, but they will eat up paper items and destroy things like that. Get an exterminater to check it out and pay for piece of mind.

It's probably a silverfish. They are harmless to humans, in that they don't bite, but could be some sanitation issues if there is a large infestation.
