Q: How do you request assembly

Q: Is this shelf free-standing, or does it need to be bolted to the walls?
A: It's designed to be screwed into the wall. I didn't do it. The weight of the shelf plus books are heavy enough to keep it in place. I've had mine for a week and it's doing just fine. The prior ladder shelves that I had before purchasing this one, I also let it lean without securing it and it was fine for the last 10 years.

Q: Are the shelves stained hardwood or veneer?
A: Hi - Thanks for the great question about these handsome shelves. These are made of composite wood panels that are covered with a 3D textured paper to really give it that wood look. Hope this helps, have a great weekend. -Michael

Q: Can the bookcase be mounted to the wall?
A: I have this and it most definitely can be screwed to the wall. Not sure what the Target team member looked at. I can't remember if it came with screws...I think it did, because ours are black. It is a great bookcase. I use it in the kitchen with cookbooks, cookie jar and knick-knacks on it.
