Yes!

I have a long-term plan to use books as poor-mans-but-pretty-or-at-least-unusual sound insulation. As floor to ceiling as possible whilst also being shelved.

Not for a party room, but for a reading room / library / study / peaceful room.

I'm not planning to move house anytime between now and my, hopefully far distant, death.

Might cork line the walls behind the books.

Thanks for that little informative tour. I've (very) casually looked into sound proofing before, and didn't come across cork.

Will remember when my project eventually gets funding approval...
