According to various aspects of the present disclosure, there are provided various exemplary embodiments of shelves, resilient drawer stops, and drawer brackets mountable to wall-mounted standards for supporting shelves and drawers. In one exemplary embodiment, an apparatus includes at least one shelf member, at least one bracket, and at least one resilient drawer stop. The bracket includes at least one engagement member for engaging a standard to mount the bracket to the standard, a support surface disposed generally horizontally when the bracket is mounted to the standard to slidably support a portion of a drawer, and a shelf support adjacent the support surface for supporting the shelf member. The resilient drawer stop is configured to resist completely sliding a drawer from the bracket's support surface.

What is claimed is: 1. An apparatus comprising: at least one bracket including an upper surface, at least one engagement member for engaging a standard to mount the bracket to the standard, and a support surface disposed generally horizontally when the bracket is mounted to the standard to slidably support a portion of a drawer, the bracket's upper surface including at least one generally U-shaped indent and at least one through-hole extending downwardly through the bracket's upper surface; at least one shelf member including first and second engagement portions configured to engage the respective indent and through-hole of the bracket's upper surface for restraining generally horizontal movement of the shelf member relative to the bracket. 2. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the first engagement portion of the shelf member includes a generally concave curvature curving generally downwardly for engagement around the indent of the bracket. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the second engagement portion of the shelf member includes a generally downward projection for insertion within the through-hole of the bracket. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, further comprising at least one resilient drawer stop engaged to the shelf member and configured to resist completely sliding a drawer from the support surface of the bracket. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the indent is defined by a forward end portion of the bracket's upper surface, and the through-hole is defined through a rearward end portion of the bracket's upper surface. 6. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the bracket is configured to allow a generally horizontally extending lip of the drawer to be slidably moved along an entire length of the support surface. 7. A bracket mountable to a standard for supporting a drawer and a shelf member having first and second engagement portions, the bracket comprising: at least one engagement member for engaging the standard to mount the bracket to the standard; a support surface extending generally horizontally when the bracket is mounted to the standard to slidably support a portion of the drawer; a shelf support adjacent the support surface for removably supporting the shelf member; the bracket including oppositely facing grooves, a surface of one of said grooves forming the support surface, and a surface of the other one of said grooves forming an upper surface of the bracket; the bracket's upper surface including an indent and an aperture through the upper surface for engagingly receiving the respective first and second engagement portions of the shelf member for restraining generally horizontal movement of the shelf member relative to the bracket. 8. The bracket of claim 7, wherein the indent is generally U-shaped when viewed from above. 9. The bracket of claim 7, wherein the oppositely facing grooves cooperatively form a generally S-shaped cross-section. 10. The bracket of claim 7, wherein the bracket is configured such that a generally horizontally extending lip of the drawer is slidably movable along an entire length of the support surface. 11. A shelf member removably supportable by an upper surface of at least one bracket mountable to a standard, the shelf member comprising: a shelf deck for supporting one or more items thereon; at least one engagement portion having a generally concave curvature curving generally downwardly relative to shelf deck for engagement around an indent defined by the bracket's upper surface; at least one generally downward projection configured for insertion within a through-hole defined by the bracket's upper surface; the engagement of the shelf member's engagement portion and downward projection with the respective indent and through-hole of the bracket restrains generally horizontal movement of the shelf member relative to the bracket; and at least one resilient drawer stop having a first end portion adjacent the shelf deck, a second end portion, and at least first and second curved portions alternating in curvature extending from about the first end portion towards the second end portion, the first and second curved portions cooperatively defining a generally S-shape. 12. An apparatus comprising: at least one shelf member; at least one bracket including at least one engagement member for engaging a standard to mount the bracket to the standard, a support surface disposed generally horizontally when the bracket is mounted to the standard to slidably support a portion of a drawer, and a shelf support adjacent the support surface for removably supporting the shelf member; at least one resilient drawer stop configured to resist completely sliding a drawer from the bracket's support surface, the resilient drawer stop including a first end portion engaged to the shelf member, a second end portion, and at least first and second curved portions alternating in curvature extending from about the first end portion towards the second end portion, the second end portion configured for engaging a rearward portion of the drawer when the drawer is slidably moved along the bracket's support surface to a first position to thereby resist sliding movement of the drawer along the bracket's support surface beyond the first position. 13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the first and second curved portions of the resilient drawer stop cooperatively define a generally S-shape. 14. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the resilient drawer stop is resiliently depressible such that depression of the resilient drawer stop allows the drawer to be slidably moved along the bracket support surface beyond the first position to a second position in which the first curved portion engages the drawer's rearward portion to thereby resist sliding movement of the drawer along the bracket's support surface beyond the second position. 15. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the resilient drawer stop is generally upwardly movable to allow the drawer's rearward portion to be slidably moved under the resilient drawer stop for removal from the bracket. 16. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the bracket includes an upper surface having at least one opening therethrough, and wherein the shelf member includes at least one engagement portion for engagement with the at least one opening of the bracket's upper surface for restraining generally horizontal movement of the shelf member relative to the bracket. 17. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the bracket includes oppositely facing grooves, a surface of one of said grooves forming the support surface, and a surface of the other one of said grooves forming the shelf support. 18. The apparatus of claim 17, wherein the shelf support includes a lower surface of the other one of said grooves, and wherein the shelf member includes an edge portion configured for positioning within the other one of said grooves such that the edge portion rests upon the lower surface of the other one of said grooves.
