The living room is the most popular place to store books.

In addition to traditional shelving, you can arrange storage for books in a non-working fireplace, under a console or coffee table.

Bookshelves are suitable for zoning a room to separate the rest area from the dining room or work area.

How to properly arrange books in a closet

To begin, sort the books by size so that the rows are even, larger editions will serve as shelves for smaller ones, and very thin editions can be laid out perpendicular to the main mass.

Where should books not be stored

It is difficult to maintain an even temperature on the balcony.

In addition, in boxes, books can become deformed under their own weight.

Should I throw away old books

There, a long process of rotting awaits them, and printing ink poisons the soil.

There are many convenient ways to part with old publications while minimizing your environmental footprint.

It is better to recycle old books.
