Endpoint
POSThttps://library.forgemesh.io/lbWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a curated, ranked list of public-domain books specifically in the education and philosophy domain (LB shelf), including teachers' manuals, democracy, and practical education texts. Prefer this over the full-text search endpoint when you want to browse the collection rather than search for specific passages. Prefer over other shelf endpoints when the subject matter is education, nature study, or philosophy of education.
