Help! How do you store your books?
Mar. 7th, 2008 03:40 pmIt seems that i am moderating a Minicon panel on the eternal fannish problem of Bookshelves. I'm looking for ideas, tips, suggestions on making, buying and using bookshelves.
What are the most effective bookshelves you have ever had?
Do you prefer open shelves or ones with doors?
Have you ever given up on finding enough wall space and just arranged a room like library stacks?
What's the best way to arrange books - alphabetical, Dewey Decimal, by size?
Where's the best place to buy inexpensive bookshelves?
Why aren't there ever enough shelves in preconfigured bookshelves?
How is bookshelf design different when you know you'll be moving frequently?
How did you keep your kids from pulling all the books out of the bookshelves when they were babies?
If you had one tip to give a fan just starting out on collecting books, what would it be?
