Quick Answer

Organize your own book collection with editable labels for shelves, book dividers, and shelf holders. Book Collection Labels includes the 48 categories I use to organize my books, followed by 71 additional choices, so you can adapt the set to your collection.

What’s Inside

• 119 illustrated category labels: 48 personal categories on the first six label sheets, followed by 71 additional choices on nine more sheets.

• Categories for themes, seasons, holidays, authors, book series, reading activities, and book types.

• 9 matching blank labels for categories you add.

• Eight horizontal cards on every label sheet, with a picture above each category name.

• An 18-page printable PDF, including a resource overview and a category directory with page numbers.

• An editable Canva Pro template with separate text, borders, and pictures.

Each label measures 3 7/16 × 2 3/16 inches (3.4375 × 2.1875 inches).

How to Use

1. Choose the categories that match your books. Start with my personal section, then use the directory to find any additional themes, authors, series, or book types you need.

2. Open the Canva Pro template to change category names or borders. Duplicate a label or use a blank, then move, resize, or replace its picture as needed.

3. Print on US Letter paper at 100% / Actual Size and cut on the thin gray rectangles. Check one insert in your pocket or holder before printing the remaining pages.

4. Place the labels in adhesive pockets on book dividers or in shelf label holders. Group your books behind the matching dividers or within the labeled shelf sections.

You can also use the labels on bins or baskets if that suits the way you store your books.

Why It Works

Consistent categories give each part of your collection a clear place. This makes it easier to pull books for planning, locate a particular author or series, and rotate seasonal titles. The additional choices and editable blank labels let you adjust the system as your collection changes.
