Post subject: Bookshelf
Hi All,

I'm looking for a good sturdy bookshelf for my apartment. It needs to be
able to hold large hard cover textbooks as well as lots of small books.

Any pointers on where the best place to look is?

Thanks!

Ikea may be the easiest with several options, same day service (if you assemble yourself) and fairly inexpensive.

Design and build. You design, I can get it built. Wink

But if you need instant gratification, I agree with Magnolia, IKEA.

I've never been happy with the bookshelves and things that you have to assemble that I've bought from Ikea.

I don't need it straight away so I might do that yu888. I'll draw up some schematics and contact you when
I get back from Vietnam.
