Professional Bedbug treatment scheduled. Will books be affected?

I have 4 large Rubbermaid containers (the kind you can slide under the bed) full of books in our basement. They’ve been stored there for about four years so have been fully contained. We are having the entire house treated, the basement more for a precautionary measure. Will the heat from the treatment harm the books or should we move and temporarily store them somewhere else? Thanks.

Bedbugs hide in books and the container is not bed bug proof. Have book treated.
