I would ask my assistant to organize my books on my shelves, sticker them with a library of congress ID or a dewey decimal ID or something, which would put the like books together, and then make sure they were all in my LibraryThing.
Then I could find the books I know I have, and I need to get something from.
I wish I had a personal assistant, because I know I’ll never do this..
About 8 months ago, my wife decided she was going to clean up the library/computer room while I was away. When I came home, my books had been alphabetized.
My first reaction was “You did what?….WOW….â€
My second reaction was to apologize ‘cause we were gong to have to move all the books down stairs on a month and turn the library/computer room into Cyrus’ room.
I have 7 bookshelves full of books, some two deep.

Tha'ts quite a task for your lovely wife to do. I'm surprised you didn't turn downstairs into Cyrus' room just to avoid moving the books 🙂
