The ancient Near East Languages (including Old Persian and Gatha Avestan) are grouped topically with books about the ancient Near East, which is directly below books on Islam, Sufism and classical Arabic (note the distinction between that and modern standard Arabic, which is on the dictionary stand), which is on the same shelf as the beginning of Judaica. Judaica, of course, blends into the history of religion on the shelf next to it (the Egypt one).
I'm guessing Wehr for modern (though really, it does a good enough job on most older texts), but which ones for classical? They must've cost a fortune either way, but then that goes for rather a lot of books in your library, it seems...
Also, I'm really hoping that just because you have a dictionary for a language, particularly the extinct ones, doesn't mean you're fluent in it... because that would be scary.
How do you organise your bookshelf?
