Love the built-in shelving

How long did installing the shelving take? Was any of the wall load bearing?

The shelving was a part of a much larger project and was installed around all four walls of that library room? It was fabricated and installed with all of the other custom casework so answering the 'how long' question is hard. At least one of the library walls was load bearing.
