I didn't know where else to post this, but I think this is the right spot: How do you organize your magic library? 📚 I primarily organize alphabetically by author's last name, but there are some exceptions to that rule. What are your rules and exceptions?

Oh, and I found a really cool invisible bookend you can make for free! I've been making a bunch of them for areas where I don't have a shelf, just a flat surface like a desk or a coffee table. Enjoy!

I sort my books by theme. Cards, biographies, history etc. Love your paper gadget!

Thanks. It's not my paper gadget, but it works so amazingly well!

I second the like on the bookends--very nice!

I like to organize my library by category, and then alphabetically by author within categories. I also separate out small pamphlets and large spiral and perfect bound pamphlets. Those go in magazine holders which can then be shelved. Pamphlets I currently have organized alphabetically by title.

Jeff, I seem to remember you had an episode about setting up a personal library database? My library recently doubled (estate situation) and I've been meaning to get it organized for nearly a year now. Too many gems in there to let them lie unused.
