It is distinguished by its adjustable shelves thanks to a rack system, a technical innovation allowing the height to be adjusted according to the size of the bindings. Before becoming a mobile piece of furniture, it was often built into the woodwork of castles; it was the bourgeoisie that turned it into a standalone piece that could be moved according to one's wishes. Whether open or glass-fronted, it is the sanctuary of knowledge, once called "library" in ancient inventories.
