What woodworking tools does one need to only build bookcases?
I just want to start building bookcases, and was wondering what tools I would need. I appreciate anyone answering but I am hoping that I will get an answer from a woodworker or experienced person.

–EDIT–
I guess you really don’t need all that stuff right off the bat. I’ll put an asterisk by the stuff you will need just to start production.
If you are just building bookcases for yourself, all you really need is a saw (a circular saw would be a good choice), a square, a hammer or screwdriver, and sandpaper and paintbrush.
If you are thinking of going into the business of building bookcases, I’d re-think it if you have to ask this question.
