Want to add shelves to old Ikea bookshelf (with hooks for steel side supports)

I have a 15+ year old Ikea Billy bookcase which has open metal sides. The shelves hook over the horizontal brackets at each end of the shelving unit (see photos). I was wondering where I might be able to buy additional shelves for this sort of unit - Ikea no longer sell them - or just brackets that I can screw to ordinary shelves which will allow me to hook them over the brackets in the bookcase.
Could anyone advise?

Make your own timber shelf the same shape as one already there and screw it to the uprights
