| Use Post its For Bookmarks
|
|
I use post it note paper as bookmarks. You can get the really small ones in a variety of colors, they work really great. Plus, they don't slip out of books like regular bookmarks.

| Use Dresser Drawers as a Bookshelf
|
|
I have purchased quite a few books over the years. I spent so much money on the books themselves that I didn't have enough left over to buy shelving, and that's where I got the idea for this helpful little tip. I had stacks of books all over the house, and I finally decided that something had to be done, so I went on a hunt.

| Video Boxes For Organizing Paperbacks
|
|
I was getting overwhelmed with paperbacks, they would be 2 deep on my shelves and I would have trouble finding the one I wanted. I brought home some of those video/photo boxes you can get at craft stores, and while organizing my videos, realized that they are also the perfect size for most standard sized paperback books.

| Organizing Books

Tips for organizing books. I am 13 and I am saving books for my own personal library for when I am older. My problem is that I don't know how to organize my books. I have alot of them and lots of shelves. Am I supposed to do them by author or subject or something?

| Paperclip Bookmark
|
|
A paper clip works well as a bookmark, especially if you are carry books in a bag or backpack. The paperclip won't fall out the way a loose bookmark can.

| Longer Lasting Paperback Books
|
|
If you want to have paperback books last - cover them with clear contact paper, leaving a margin of 2 plus inches on the inside edge. For some reason, this seems to help the binding, as well as keeping the cover from getting frayed.

| Organizing Children's Books
|
|
I am looking for an inexpensive way to store all my daughters books. She is 2, loves books and has SO MANY! At first, I used a jumbo diaper box, but since she has accumulated more, it is overflowing and she can't see what books she has.

| Lending Books
|
|
I lend my books a lot and in order to remember who has what book I remove the dust jacket and place a post it note on the inside with the person's name and the date. I then place the jacket back in my bookcase.

| "Books I Have Read in My Lifetime"
|
|
Recently as part of some estate work, I arranged for the removal of the contents of the deceased person's home library (she was an avid reader). There was a Journal at the end of the book shelf and when I opened it, it read "THE BOOKS I HAVE READ IN MY LIFETIME".

| Organizing Magazine Information
|
|
By Monica Resinger
|
|
I've always enjoyed home and garden magazines. So much so that they quickly began to pile up. Soon I realized I couldn't keep each and every magazine because my house just doesnt have that kind of space. Keeping every magazine wasn't doing me any good anyway; I couldn't find specific information when I wanted it.
