Put aside for a while (6)
I believe the answer is:
shelve
'put aside for a while' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for shelve that I've seen before include "Put aside for the present, plan or book" , "Lay aside" , "Provide space for books" , "Store" , "Place on a horizontal surface" .)
