Yes and no. For books in the main memory, the images are generated as needed and saved for later. For books on the SD card, the images are generated each time. The reason for this is so the images aren't taking space in the main memory. I'm hoping that a future change will store them on the SD card.

And why should the shelves take longer to show then the book list, seems to me it should be just as fast once the actual shelf is created and books compiled to it.
Opening a shelf is about the same speed as opening the main library list. Opening the shelf list, counts how many books are on each shelf. I can see a reason for a little extra time, but I think there is some inefficient code it there.
