Organize Your Books and Music with DIY Labeled Dividers.
By ChrisjobI love to walk through the reserve section of my local library...the books, records, and DVDs are lined up in the back corner, with these huge dividers, each with an oversized letter in Helvetica, organizing the reserves by the last name.
Matthew created this how-to on Flickr: unusable vinyl LPs augmented with stick-on letters slid in between physical media to keep 'em alphabetized and easy to find.

I love this idea for a dividing screen. This bubble wrap is silicon filled, but I want to make a greener (if not green) version as a headboard covering.
Tutorial: Noren - Traditional Japanese Fabric Dividers.
By ChrisjobJapanese sewing machine company Janome offers a great tutorial and a bit of info on noren (暖簾) : traditional japanese fabric dividers that are hung on walls, windows, doorways, or in between rooms.

B & B Italia’s Soft Wall, designed by Gerhards & Glücker, is a room divider, space definer, sculpture and storage unit. How’s that for multi-functionalism? Crafted of felt on a metal frame, the wall provides pockets for all those magazines, brochures, invitations and such. An added bit of news: B & B Italia has taken up shop in the U.S. in SoHo at 138 Greene Street as of March 07.
A room without a wall (or door!)
By zanaroseMy dilemma is this:
As of yesterday, I will be living with two of my friends in a lovely apartment in the Mission neighborhood of San Francisco (if you've never been I highly advise you to...). Through the luck of drawing straws, I go stuck with the faux bedroom.
