How to Organize the Library
Sorting the library in Witch Cabin Cleanup requires categorizing books across ten subjects and arranging each shelf in alphabetical order. Rather than reading every spine individually while searching the room, identifying books by their cover colors streamlines the cleanup process significantly.
Recommended Sorting Strategy
Begin by collecting books with distinct cover colors before tackling ambiguous shades:
- Start with vibrant shades: Yellow (History & Lore), Pink/Magenta (Charms & Enchantment), and Purple (Divination) stand out clearly against the environment and are fastest to gather.
- Handle lookalikes carefully: Blue covers are shared by both Stars & Astrology and Spellcraft, while reddish tones appear in both Curses & Protection and Magical Creatures. Leave these for later passes to minimize misplacement.
Library Shelf Layout
Shelves are arranged in a fixed clockwise sequence beginning immediately from the Apothecary entrance:
- History & Lore (Yellow covers)
- Charms & Enchantment (Pink and magenta covers)
- Divination (Purple covers)
- Potions & Alchemy (Teal covers)

- Spirits & Necromancy (White, grey, and black covers)
- Curses & Protection (Red and salmon covers)
- Spellcraft (Blue covers)
- Magical Creatures (Orange, reddish, and brown covers)

Alphabetical Book Lists by Category

Alphabetical Indexing Rules
The lists above reflect the game's exact title typography and use literal alphabetical placement, sorting by the first word (including grammatical articles such as A, An, and The). If you choose to sort shelves by excluding initial articles, titles like The Alchemist’s Almanac will shift to their root letter instead.
