Frequently asked
Does Better Bookshelves work on Minecraft 1.21.8?
Yes. 1.21.8 is the newest Minecraft version Better Bookshelves declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.
Which Minecraft versions does Better Bookshelves support?
Everything the author has declared, from 1.16.5 up to 1.21.8. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.
How do I install Better Bookshelves?
Download the file from the author's own release, put it in your resourcepacks folder, and enable it in Options, then Resource Packs. No loader is involved; check the pack targets your Minecraft version so textures do not fall back to defaults.
Where do I download Better Bookshelves safely?
Start with the author's page on CurseForge, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference does not host or repackage files. When available, recorded download links go to the source for that release; verify the publisher, filename and any available checksum before running it.
Works on the same versions
Ordered by how much of the recent Minecraft version coverage overlaps, not by popularity.
