2. Match floor and color
The code tells you the floor; the spine color helps you confirm the shelf visually.
3. Batch trips
Carry upgrades are the biggest early speed gain because each walk can deliver more books.
4. Audit at the end
Use Insight or a careful table scan when one misplaced book blocks the finish.

How We Verified
This site separates confirmed public-source mappings from values that still need an in-game pass. Floor 1 sections 1A-1J and Floor 2 sections 2A-2G are listed with their current known categories. Unconfirmed shelves stay marked as TBD / verify so players do not memorize invented data.
Before publishing a new shelf mapping, we compare the book code, the shelf label, and the spine-color cue in a live Clean The Library server. Codes and likes are rechecked daily because Roblox games can patch reward systems without notice.
Frequently asked questions
What is the core loop?
Read the book, identify the category or code, carry it to the matching shelf, then repeat with fewer wrong trips.
What should beginners learn first?
Learn the confirmed shelves 1A-1J and 2A-2G, then use the finder for the rest while you play.
Should I spend hints early?
Avoid spending hints unless stuck. Search the shelf finder first to preserve progression resources.
