I haven’t had much time in the shop lately but I did manage to get these shelves finished for our daughter’s new room at college. Made from laminated Baltic Birch ply and edged with solid birch. Joints are mitered with biscuits. The finish is WB poly because I didn’t want to add any color. The original plan was from ShopNotes or Woodsmith, I can’t remember which.

Nice job. How did you mount / attach them to the walls?

The shelves are attached to the walls with aluminum angle. If you look closely at the new pciture of the stacks of side pieces, you will see one edge will have a slot to accept the aluminum angle. That edge also has a relief to allow for the thickness of the aluminum to be hidden.
I don’t believe it mentioned this in the original plans, but I would recommend planning the specific layout on the wall before starting on these shelves. You may want them to be identical as these are or, you may want mirror images or, more shelves in some combination. This will allow more layout choices than figuring out the layout after the shelves are built. This would also mean that you would only have to slot and relieve one edge on each shelf instead of all edges as indicated in the original plan.
