There is no direct relationship because the potential energy of the book on the shelf is defined relative to an arbitrary base line at which the potential energy would be zero. The work done in raising the book is the increase in the potential energy of book from however much PE it had in its previous location - for example, on a lower shelf.

Gravitational + Potential = 100 If you have 67 J of potential energy your gravitational energy would be 33 J.
The gravitational potential energy doesn't actually reside in a single object, but in the relationship between two objects. Thus, there is a gravitational potential energy between Earth and Moon, or between a rock that you lift up on the Moon, and the Moon.The gravitational potential energy doesn't actually reside in a single object, but in the relationship between two objects.

Potential Energy If it falls, it will then be subject of gravity, so it has the potential of becoming energetic. -------------------- The bookshelf could also catch fire and the book would release energy as heat.
The diagram of IE plus SE equals PE represents the relationship between kinetic energy (KE), potential energy (PE), and the total mechanical energy (E) of an object. In this diagram, IE represents the initial energy, SE represents the additional energy supplied, and PE represents the potential energy gained. The total mechanical energy of the object is the sum of the initial energy and the additional energy, which can be converted into potential energy.
Current will flow if there is a difference of potential energy and a path between those points.
