I don't have lots of cookbooks. Mainly because I tend more to just find recipes I like online. Since I have been doing lots of freezer cooking and bulk baking recently, I have printed out all of my most frequently used recipes, cut them out, and taped them on the inside of my cabinet doors (all but the ones with the glass fronts). So when I am making something, I just leave the cabinet door open with that recipe on it. For actual cookbook storage, I have seen where people have used magazine type racks on the backs of doors (kinda the way a shoe-rack works) to store cookbooks. Also seen where they take plastic coated wire baskets and fasten the bottoms of them to the wall to make little hanging "cubbies" for the books. Oh, and one more is where they use vertical type shelving for them because it takes up less room (with this type shelving, you only need about a foot of space across and could go to the ceiling if need be).
