FS#4712 - Bookshelves like in the Library for Guild houses
It would be cool if players could buy bookshelves like the ones in the library. Rather than the player trying to set all the book items on the bookshelf that can be bought in Winch right now and making it look as if the books are on the shelf in the proper way the same dwarf could sell the shelves that look like the ones in the library. It would hold books like a container.

assigning to Talad, so he can approve/deny it, as it's not an issue from an engine point of view
approved.
I assume it is still desired not to leave excessive numbers of items in guild houses to reduce the ram load on the server side. In this context, one item that looks like a nice bookshelf is preferable to dozens of books laid on a shelf item.
from a server point of view there's no difference boni, as items being in a container that is located in the world (e.g. a dropped sack, …) are loaded just as if they'd be dropped to the ground directly.
it may only have an effect on clients as those don't have to render all the books, but just the shelf.
however I doubt it's that big unless you have a really big library :D
the library ones are not actual items so that's excluded it would mean making a separate bookshelves item (or actually fixing the linked ones item stats as they were boxes last time i checked) and making it a container.
I would say having the name like with the barrels you have:
Dark Wooden Barrels
Fulled Dark Wooden Barrels
Wooden Barrels
Fulled Wooden Barrels
So you have a:
Fulled Wooden Shelf
(Empty) Wooden Shelf
Fulled Dark Wooden Shelf
(Empty) Dark Wooden Shelf
Fulled Bamboo Shelf
(empty) Bamboo Shelf
Just so that if the guild prefers to place each book out they can.
