A bookshelf is a block that improves enchantments applied with an enchanting table when placed around one, up to a maximum of fifteen bookshelves, at the expense of level requirement.

Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Breaking

[edit | edit source]

Bookshelves can be mined by hand, but are broken faster with an axe. In either case, they drop 3 books when broken, allowing the reconstruction of the bookshelf with the addition of six wood planks. When broken by a tool enchanted with Silk Touch, a bookshelf drops itself.

  1. โ†‘ These durations ignore any other influential factors (e.g., Mining Fatigue) and are measured in seconds. For more information, see Breaking ยง Speed.

Natural generation

[edit | edit source]

Bookshelves can generate in village libraries and sometimes village houses.

Strongholds may contain up to two libraries, each of which may be single-level or have an upper balcony. These feature some bookshelves arranged in pillars, and more bookshelves arranged in pillars in the walls. Single-level libraries contain 161 bookshelves, while libraries with balconies contain 233.

Bookshelves also naturally generate in certain woodland mansion rooms. Various rooms can have between 1-24 bookshelves, while the "large library" room contains 180.

Usage

[edit | edit source]

Enchanting

[edit | edit source]

If an enchanting table is placed near a bookshelf, glyph particles fly from the bookshelf toward the enchanting table. Having bookshelves in the proper position near the table allows the table to apply higher-level enchantments.

Fifteen bookshelves need to be near an enchanting table to gain the maximum of level 30 enchantments.
