Default Optimum spacing between shelf supports

What's the best distance to have between the two brackets of a shelf?
It's going to hold books, and I don't want it to bow in the middle (or
anywhere else).

Is it better to have the brackets at 1/3 and 2/3 distance along the
shelf, or 1/4 and 3/4 distance? Or is the optimum figure somewhere in
between?

How long is the shelf?
