Abstract

A shelving assembly having vertical standards and cantilever brackets, and an elongated generally U-shaped cover over each standard. The cover flanges laterally stabilize the bracket. The brackets have V-shaped upper recesses interfitting with slotted hemispherical shelving mounts fitted in the upper edge recesses of the brackets, each mount having a tapered slot configuration complementary to the recess configuration, and having an upper adhesive pad and a vertical jack for temporarily holding a shelf up off the adhesive. The jacks are shiftable down under limited predetermined force to lower the shelf onto the adhesive for anchoring.
