You're right.. a poly coat is probably better in the long run
anyway.  A vinyl/plastic sheet could stretch or rip if the chair was
used as an actual chair and not just for decoration.

I've seen armchairs repurposed for book storage around the leg
areas. Not sure how practical that would be for an adult when you
need to reach for another book, but for kids that could be a fun way
to appreciate a collection.
