How many books will a BOOKBIN™ hold?

The following BOOKBINS™ capacities assume an average picture book thickness of 3/8", shelved with a bit of “slack” in each compartment. If books are jam-packed into the available space the capacities may actually be greater, however we do not recommend this; leaving a bit of air in each compartment facilitates browsing and makes re-shelving easier.

Original Bookbin™	300–325
Bookbin™ Classmate	200–225
Bookbin™ Sidekick	180–200
