book stack
Vertical reading collection
A book stack is a section of a library where books are shelved, especially the multi-tiered metal shelving systems in research libraries: The rare volumes are kept in the closed stacks.
In casual use, a book stack is simply a pile of books: A book stack towered on her nightstand.
