You can fit about 20+\-standard tankobon in one of these bathroom style bins from Target - I can also fit in a small stand to keep things from falling over. They are 12x6x4 and were a few $ ea.

Found this giant teddy bear on the library circulation desk this morning. A few students helped brainstorm who to pass it along to next and how to sneak it into their room. Special thanks to my school sunshine committee- it did make me smile today.
