It is estimated that every five seconds, one BILLY bookcase is sold somewhere in the world. Pretty impressive considering we launched BILLY in 1979. It’s the booklovers choice that never goes out of style.

Billy bookcase shelvesLuisaI wish extra navy Billy bookcase shelves were available
Billiy shelving is affordable, flexible and can be used in many rooms from bedrooms to living rooms to home offices.KarenBilly is easy to assemble and pretty sturdy considering the price point. We bought additional shelves in wood grain to add to our White Billy bookcases and are very happy with the look!
Billy Extra ShelfRosalindHappy with purchase, performs as expected. A little pricey for a single shelf.
Nice addition to the BILLY OXBERG cabinetTonyNeeded to add more shelving to the BILLY OXBERG cabinet. Easy to install.
The Billy glass shelf fits great. LouiseThe Billy glass shelf fits great on the newer Billy bookcase but the older model bookcase, the holes are to big for the screws that come with the shelf. The bar code sticker is dificult to remove.
White Billy Bookcase - Additional shelvesJudyExcellent quality and so happy to be able to purchase additional shelves for our Billy Bookcase that we also purchased recently! Surely recommend this high quality bookcase
Perfect HelinaVery easy to put it on
Glass shelves a must haveSusanThese glass shelves give a high end look to my billy. The only problem for me, is there wasn’t a delivery option for my area so had to make other arrangements.
Loving my new BillySusanMy ikeas order arrived with two new Billy's. I now have five glass fronted billy bookcases with top extensions and totally love them. I had lights wired and swapped out the mdf shelves for glass ones, thus elevating the affordable Ikea look to a high end and custom look. Knowing glass shelves were available would be good for other purchasers. And so easy for this 70 year old woman to assemble. I watched a YouTube video before assembly and put them together and secured them to the wall in no time without help from my husband.
Billy, extra shelvesFredI was a little disappointed with the product this time. They had been out of stock when I first looked for them. When I found them back in stocks a week later I grabbed two without inspecting them. Both had minor imperfections in the back top corner. Once installed the imperfections were covered in books so I retained them. I also found the price high for a 14 x 10 inch shelf.
Practical and SturdyDavidBought two and were exactly what I was looking for in size and price.
Extra shelfMatthewReally glad to be able to customize the amount of shelves we have as they have yet to standardize book sizes.
BILLY SHELF PRICEYMarkI BOUGHT THE BILLY SHELF. OVERALL HAPPY WITH ... WANTED EXTRA SHELVES. THE EXTRA SHELVES AT $20 EACH IS WAY TOO EXPENSIVE
Extra shelves.DawnAlready pre-cut
Great for ShoesNatashaI needed a few extra shelves for my Bill Bookcase because I use it for shoes. Super convenient to just be able to buy a few extra shelves. Very easy to add then on and also surprisingly sturdy.
Billy bookshelfShirleyI use it for a china cabinet. I have two wine/red coloured ones and love them, Unfortunately cannot get the extra shelf in this colour so bought a glass shelf. works great.
Wish the Billy shelf still came in red, green and blue along with the new colours.
Glass shelfAnonymous reviewerLittle different way to install then the wood shelves, but easy to follow instructions. Because they are thinner than the wooden ones, I fit more Books 📚
Solid ShelfHollyThis is a good shelf. I'm very happy you can get additional shelving for the Billy bookcase. The extra shelves are great value.

Material
What is glass?
Glass is mainly made of sand, soda and lime melted at a high temperature. Tempering or various additives gives you extra-strong and impact-resistant glass that in some cases can be taken straight from freezer to oven without cracking. A big benefit is how glass can be recycled over and over without the quality deteriorating. Also, a lot less energy is needed to melt recycled glass compared to new raw materials. Our goal is to eventually use only recycled glass in our range.
