I have transfered most of what I had that had not been replaced over the years. The 45s are now down to less than 50 and they should be finished by month's end.
In the office area I had to turn some bookcases on their side so they stick out into the room making it almost a maze to get around so that I could fit even more bookcases in. The walls alone were not enough.
The basement looks like an old library stack but without enough ease space between the verticals. To the average person I am sure that the racks and bookcases are worth more than the stuff contained in them.

I've made bookcases suspended from the ceiling because all the walls were taken. I've also built bookshelves dividing rooms, like a wall. My favorite is a bookcase over a doorway, it seems weird but with the number of doors one can find in a house and the fact that you can install a case on both sides of a wall you get a lot of free space that way. When you look at it most houses are built following a cubic shape, with the upper corners totally wasted. There is absolutely nothing done with it. The best unobtrusive library is created from that upper foot and a half all around the room and you can install lighting, built in, right underneath it.
