One possible alternative is to align multiple apertures 26 in vertical or horizontal alignment to ensure that shelf 10 will be attached securely.

  • Leafing stacking member 14 between pages 36 and cover 32 of the first book placed upon shelf 10 enables stacking member 14 to support multiple books 30 in such a manner that stacking member 14 is completely concealed. Placing multiple books on shelf 10 , which cumulatively reach a height greater that the height of mounting member 12 , will also conceal mounting member 12 .
  • the illustrations show shelf 10 with only two books 30 on shelf 10 , it should be understood that many more books can be held on shelf 10 , and that it is preferable to place multiple books on shelf 10 to fully conceal the shelf.
  • first book 30 has cover 32 placed within at least one ledge 20 , wherein cover 32 is placed on the bottom side of stacking member 14 and pages 36 are placed on the top side of stacking member 14 , with a sufficient number of books stacked upon this first book, generally entire shelf 10 with be concealed to give the appearance that the shelved books are floating unaided.
