Every new block added to Minecraft serves a purpose, but some are more unique than others. The Chiseled Bookshelf is a new block that will presumably be added in the next major update for Minecraft, but players using the experimental features of the current update already have access to this block. Crafting Chiseled Bookshelves is easy, they are functional, and they have some pretty interesting applications with Redstone creations. Essentially, a Chiseled Bookshelf is a bookshelf that players can actually use to store books as opposed to the regular bookshelf which is simply crafted using books.
