8、r a total of 21 categories. Your home library may or may not be as large as your local public library, but a good system of organization will still help you find the book you want quickly.

9、jects such as history, technology or fiction might make their retrieval easier.

13、ficult for a book lover to spend money on something other than books, at some point ,you will need some bookshelves. Built-in, bookshelves can provide floor-to-ceiling storage and space savings.

15、udes antique books that you want to preserve. Sagging poses the main threat to bookshelves. A bookshelf that is 36 inches long should have shelves at least one inch thick.

16、se adjustable bookshelves, so that very small books dont take up space that can be better used for taller coffee table books.

17、o expand as your collection grows. As your bookshelves creep up the wall, you may need a library ladder to reach them.

20、onal reading. Wherever youre sitting, it will be hard to enjoy a library if youre suffering from eyestrain, fatigue and headaches, which can all be brought on by poor lighting. When selecting lighting, look for a lamp that will help you see the smallest text you read. The lamp should be positioned o

21、ver your shoulder, so that the light is not directly in your eyes. Positioning it this way will also help to minimize glare.

26、ll ventilated. Books should be stored away from radiators and kept in a room between 60F and 70F. Air conditioners and fans are fine to use to keep the temperature down.
