Bookcases & Shelving — Expert Answer
What is the depth of a standard office bookcase?
Standard office bookcases are 12"–15" deep. A 12" depth accommodates paperback books, standard binders, and most office reference materials. A 15" depth accommodates larger binders, oversized reference books, and some decorative items. For AV equipment or printer storage, a 15"–18" depth is needed.
