This seems inexplicable to me. We're academics and there are at least 1500 books in my study at home, all neatly shelved. My partner has at least 2,500 in his home study, plus many boxes more in the attic. And there are at lest 3,000 in our large sitting room.
And we've both got more books in our offices at the university.
I don't see how neatly-shelved books are more of fire hazard than other possessions. And they are good insulation.
But I bought the Sony Reader because I'm running out of shelves.
