[QUOTE="el-remmen, post: 8201948, member: 11"] I was moving some things around in the game room and had to empty out a bookcase to move it, and I was putting books back I started to wonder if there was a different or better* way to organize them and thought it might be fun to see what others either suggest or how they'd do it if it were their books/bookcase. Keep in mind that approximately the same number of books as are currently there have to remain on each shelf for space and weight considerations. Generally, I keep core rule books (and commonly used books of any edition) together and then divide up the supplements in alphabetical and/or release order. But I am open to other suggestions, or even what your personal reasoning for how you'd order them. [B]TOP SHELF:[/B] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Shelf1.jpg"]132962[/ATTACH] [B]MIDDLE SHELF: [ATTACH type="full" alt="shelf2.jpg"]132963[/ATTACH][/B] The stuff on the right of the above shelf (btwn the 1E Book of Lairs and the 3E [I]Return to the Temple of Elemental Evil[/I]) are (mostly) 1E and BECMI modules. They are in the order of their assigned number code (so B1, B2, C1, C2, S1, UK2, like that). If you have any questions about what is on the shelves, just ask. If it matters, for the pre-5E stuff I am most likely to at monster books first and then spells and items type books second. And if you're curious about what is on the bottom shelf. . ..
