What the Leaf Pile is

The Leaf Pile is where your books wait while they aren’t on any shelf. Kiveo looks after it for you.

The Leaf Pile is where your books wait while they aren’t on any shelf yet. Think of the loose pages on a desk: everything that hasn’t been put away, gathered in one place, so nothing gets lost.

How it works

The Leaf Pile shelf is a virtual shelf. You don’t make it and you don’t fill it: Kiveo keeps it for you. A book is in the Leaf Pile for exactly as long as it isn’t on any of your shelves.

Move a book out of the Leaf Pile

  1. Add the book to any of your shelves.
  2. That’s all. The book leaves the Leaf Pile on its own.

Heads up

The Leaf Pile is managed automatically, so you can’t edit, rename or delete it. It is always there for books without a shelf.

Tip

If you’d rather keep the Leaf Pile empty, give every book a shelf as you add it. A shelf of your own for unsorted books does the same job.

Good to know

The Leaf Pile follows your shelves. When a book is on no shelf at all, that is where you’ll find it.
