I'm trying something new this year, because I have lots of books that have languished on the shelf for several years. New books seem to be more appealing and the older ones tend to get dustier and dustier.
I need to do that with my TBR shelves, and force myself to follow through.
I used to keep my books by genre: sci fi/fan, HF, general lit, non fiction, travel. Now all of my fiction is alphabetized by author, which makes it much easier to find a book. I have a different set of shelves for paper backs and hard backs (my DH made me custom fit shelves just so I can do this, bless his heart). I still separate my non fiction more or less: travel, history by country, Judaica, middle ages.
I also have a display case for my book collection, and have my art type books on the shelves of the entertainment center in the living room.
