pick up a simple heatsink no fan check the drive for the LED you got and ,..or best yet come over and i will show you what you need and maybe give a free 3w led or two...
any old phone charger with the right drive should work fine with no issues.

if you just want to light up a bookshelf-go to rona-they have small-low profile puck or strip lights for around $50-i've used them in a couple of renos-and they are plug and play
