Bookshelves You Can Use is a Minecraft plugin that turns bookshelf blocks into usable storage containers. Right-click any bookshelf block to open a 9-slot inventory where you can store and retrieve items.
This plugin is supported on the Minecraft versions listed in minecraft-versions.json: currently 1.19.4, 1.21.11, 26.2 and 26.3 (Spigot and its forks). Every stable release is booted on a real server of each of these versions before it is published, and every build checks that the plugin only uses Bukkit API that exists on all of them. Other versions from 1.19.4 onwards are expected to work but are not tested. To support another version, add it to the file: both checks pick it up.
- Download the plugin JAR.
- Place the JAR in the
pluginsfolder of your Spigot server. - Restart your server.

Usage reporting is on by default: when the plugin is enabled, and each time a player runs one of its commands, it sends its name, its version and the command's name to the author's trace server at https://trace.danielstephenson.dev, so it is known which plugins are actually in use. Nothing about players, worlds or IP addresses is sent, and nothing typed after a command. The plugin prints one line on every startup saying whether reporting is on and, if not, why.
Each event also carries a random server ID (the server-id line in plugins/trace/config.yml) so
servers can be counted rather than events. It identifies no person, account or IP address; delete
the line to get a new one.
Repeated uses of the same command within a minute are counted rather than sent one by one: the
first is sent at once, and the rest follow as a single event carrying the count (tag coalesced)
when the minute ends or the plugin is disabled. startup is always sent at once.
To turn it off:
- for this plugin only:
usage-reporting.enabled: falseinplugins/BookshelvesYouCanUse/config.yml - for every plugin on the server that reports to trace:
enabled: falseinplugins/trace/config.yml(created on first start; plugins never turn it back on) - for the whole server process: the environment variable
TRACE_USAGE_REPORTING=offorDO_NOT_TRACK=1
