A '''Bookshelf''' serves to enhance an [[Enchantment Table]], as a decoration, or as an inefficient [[furnace]] fuel. Bookshelves naturally appear in libraries inside [[Stronghold]]s, and [[NPC Village]]s. Breaking a bookshelf will drop 3 [[books]], but no [[Wood Planks|wooden planks]].

A '''bookshelf''' is an arrangement of [[book]]s that serve to enhance a nearby [[enchantment table]] or [[infernal enchanter]]. They cannot be crafted out of [[written book]]s or [[book and quill]]s, only regular books. Since books cannot be crafted (they are only found in [[jungle temple]] chests), bookshelves are very valuable. Bookshelves naturally appear in libraries inside [[stronghold]]s and [[village]]s. [[Stronghold]]s almost always feature at least one library, and small libraries feature some bookshelves arranged in 2x1 pillars, and large libraries feature more bookshelves arranged in the space below, plus there is a balcony with two walls covered in bookshelves. Bookshelves can be placed in the crafting grid to recover the books used to make them, though you lose out on the wood planks.

== Properties ==
 
−
 
 
−
A bookshelf has two [[texture]]s: one borrowed from the [[Wooden Plank|plank]] block put on the top and bottom of the block, and one edited version of the plank texture put on all four sides.
 
−
 
 
−
As one bookshelf requires three [[book]]s, books require three sheets of [[paper]] and one piece of [[leather]] (only the paper is needed in the Xbox version); paper requires one [[sugar cane]] per sheet (crafted in batches of three), nine sugar canes are necessary for each bookshelf block. It would take 576 cane to produce a full stack of bookshelves, 192 pieces of leather for the books and 96 logs for the wood. This gives a use to sugar cane: with that kind of need for resources, the endless cane farms is an option many players consider.
 
−
 
 
−
Bookshelves can be destroyed fairly easily by hand, but more quickly using an axe. In either case, they will drop 3 books when destroyed, allowing the reconstruction of the bookshelf with the addition of six [[Wooden Plank]]s.
 
−
 
 
−
Bookshelves will catch on [[fire]], so make sure to place them in a safe area away from fire and lava.
 
−
 
 
−
== Occurrence ==
 
−
 
 
−
Bookshelves can be found in a couple of places:
 
−
*[[NPC village]]s often have libraries, and inside each library there are seven bookshelves.
 
−
*[[Stronghold]]s almost always feature a library. Small libraries feature some bookshelves arranged in 2x1 pillars, and large libraries feature more bookshelves arranged in the space below, plus there is a balcony with two walls covered in bookshelves.
 
−
 
 
−
== Uses ==
 
−
 
 
−
Bookshelves are used to gain access to higher level enchantments when using the [[Enchanting Table]]. If an enchanting table is placed nearby, glyphs will fly towards it from the bookshelf in a manner similar to nether portal particles.
 
−
To get the highest boost (level 30), you need 15 bookshelves, which means 45 books and 90 planks, or 135 paper, 45 leather and 22.5 logs.
 
−
 
 
−
If one places a minecart chest on a rail then breaks the rail, they can push a bookshelf onto the minecart chest with a piston, the bookshelf can then be used like a chest to store books or anything else, since the minecart with chest entity is hidden inside the bookshelf. Also great for hiding things.

A bookshelf is an arrangement of books that serve to enhance a nearby enchantment table or infernal enchanter. They cannot be crafted out of written books or book and quills, only regular books. Since books cannot be crafted (they are only found in jungle temple chests), bookshelves are very valuable. Bookshelves naturally appear in libraries inside strongholds and villages. Strongholds almost always feature at least one library, and small libraries feature some bookshelves arranged in 2x1 pillars, and large libraries feature more bookshelves arranged in the space below, plus there is a balcony with two walls covered in bookshelves. Bookshelves can be placed in the crafting grid to recover the books used to make them, though you lose out on the wood planks.

Enchantment Table

While an enchantment table can apply level 1 enchantments alone, every two visible bookshelves within a 5x5x4 area, will add an extra level of enchanting power. This maxes out at level 15 with 30 bookshelves.

Infernal Enchanter

Every visible bookshelf within a 17x17x17 area will add an extra level of enchanting power. This maxes out at level 60 with 60 bookshelves.

Keep In Mind

  • Bookshelves are flammable, so care must be taken when placing torches nearby.
