Default Xtra tall bookcases - how?

Is it a full 9' and almost 9?

Toe section at the bottom and a crown at the top to make up the difference
perhaps?

Thinking about doing floor-ceiling bookcases in my study. Ceiling is 9' in
there.

In another room I'm doing base cabinets with the bookcase on top of them -
to overcome limitations of a 8' sheet of hardwood plywood.

Just wondering - if I want to skip the base cabinet approach - and make a

9'
tall bookcase, what are some of the techniques involved? How do you folks
get 9' of sides out of a 8' hunk o' plywood?

I've considering asking the same dude that auctioned off the Time Machine

to
see if he has a plywood stretching machine. Or warping the space time
continuum. In the meantime, I thought I'd ask the wreck.

Thanks!
