Bookcase

In our old place, we had a large black bookcase with sagging shelves that we had transported from Boston. It used to belong to Albert when he was in grad school. Anyway, we finally got rid of it in this move, and we bought new shelves from Ikea. We bought narrow bookcases, hoping that the shelves are less likely to sag. Eleanor found that she can reach the things on the higher shelves by standing on a stool. So far, we haven't been stopping her, but it's probably not that safe. I've secured the bookcases to the wall, so at least the bookcase itself won't tip over.
