To add journals to My Bookshelf select "Add to My Bookshelf" located on the journal's record page. The journal will be added to the first open slot on the Bookshelf. You can move the journal to a certain shelf or bookcase from My Bookshelf.

 

From My Bookshelf, you can move journals by selecting the journal menu accessed by hovering over the top right corner of the journal cover and clicking "Move".  Click the arrows that appear to move the journal to the preferred location.
