A swinging bookcase is a neat solution. The only problem is the weight. You need a really hefty back frame and hinge set-up. Otherwise, you have to add a roller to the bottom to help carry the weight and that leaves a track on the floor. A hidden cable (or steel rod) and turnbuckle from the top hinge to the bottom outside corner helps with carrying the weight and can be adjusted over time.
