Item on a library shelf (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tome

'item on a library shelf' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tome that I've seen before include "Big book" , "Large scholarly volume" , "dictionary?" , "War and Peace, say" , "Hefty volume" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
