No, really. If you're in this situation, you have two only sensible options.
  1. Make more space for your books. E.g., dedicate a room to books and have it divided up into shelves and aisles so that you can access all your books.
  2. Get rid of the books you can't sensibly keep and access. Keep only ones with sentimental value, or that you haven't read yet. Especially get rid of any for which you have ebook editions.
^ This.

Also, having all the inaccessable books that pile up and likely never get read just means you're one step away from the next episode of Hoarders.
