Brief Overview and Features

Better Chiseled Bookshelf is a free, open-source datapack for Minecraft version 1.21 and above that enhances the functionality of chiseled bookshelves by adding them to the list of objects that boost the enchanting table.

Like regular bookshelves, chiseled bookshelves must be placed one block away from the enchanting table to activate their effect.

Important Note

This datapack does not check the number of books placed on the chiseled bookshelf. Whether it's empty, half-full, or completely filled, it will always provide the same level of enchanting power.

Installation Guide

To begin installation when creating a new world, go to the "Data Packs" menu and click "Open Pack Folder". In the opened folder, place the ZIP archive containing the datapack, then close it.

Then move the datapack from the "Available" section to the "Selected" section, click "Done", and create your new world. Please note: do not leave the world creation menu until all steps are completed, otherwise you'll need to repeat the procedure.

To add the datapack to an existing world, open the world folder through the singleplayer menu: select the desired world, click "Edit" in the bottom left corner, then "Open World Folder".

Navigate to the "datapacks" folder and move the ZIP archive with the datapack there. After restarting the world, the datapack will activate automatically.

Now you can enjoy the new features in the game!
