Library Shelfie Day

On Library Shelfie Day, the fourth Wednesday in January provides a rare opportunity for book enthusiasts.

Some book collectors prefer to order their collections in order to display their spines in a more pleasing way. Some people have a system of organisation that results in an alternative art form. However, our books are not meant to be photographed and posted on social media, but they are meant to be photographed and posted on the shelf.

Library shelves, libraries, schools, and individuals have the opportunity to display their reading preferences through a single photograph. Readers often frame their favorite authors, titles, genres, or cover art, they often display a small portion of their library in innovative ways. Bibliophiles are avid readers of all sorts of books, with or without dust jackets, signed and unsigned, dogeared, and in mint condition.
