Just make sure to avoid the studs.
Why are you not allowed to puncture the wall? This is considered normal wear and tear and is very easily patched over when you leave.
That being said, here is a good solution that will leave a needle sized hole in the wall that will not be noticeable unless someone is really looking for it. You can also cover the hole with toothpaste before you leave and it will disappear. Rated to 100lbs.

Monkey Hooks
That looks pretty nice. I came up with a different solution myself last year so I thought I'd share. It's pretty cheap and all you need are some Monkey Hooks. You can find them at any Wal-Mart or Home Depot as well
1.
If you've never used one before you simply push the longer end into the drywall and it leaves a hook it the wall like so
2.
Then I held up a record to get the spacing right, two on bottom, one on top
3.
End result
The records sit nicely in the grove left by the hook without leaving any scratches. The remaining exposed part is also pretty small so it's barely visible
Try these Monkey Hooks they only make a small nail sized hole which is much easier to fix with quick dry spackle.
Install it as directed and I use leather boot laces tied in a square knot like this to loop around the neck and hang it off the hook. Be certain to tie a square knot and not a granny knot...
I hung several of these style of shelves in my gf's apartment using some of these http://www.monkeyhook.com/ without any problem. Plenty good enough to hold a picture or candles / knickknacks. Also leaves a much smaller hole.
Edit to add Amazon price of $10 for 30 instead of $30

maybe you could use these somehow? if not for the fabric, they are awesome to have in a rental to hang heavier pictures and things.
At our old rental we had a tapestry hanging behind the bed and I just ran a thin rope through the top (and if your fabric doesn't already have a tunnel like curtains do you could easily fold it over and sew one) and then we just did two nails on each side and tied the tapestry up. you could use smaller panels of fabric to get that drapey effect. does this make any sense?
Haha, thanks! Yeah, I've been wanting to do this for a long time, it just took a while for me to actually pull the trigger. I'd say it was hard work, but only because I don't really do this kind of stuff.
If interested:
Both are available at home depot. Mine had them in 4 foot lengths.
I used red oak, which is a very hard wood. And more expensive than I planned for. 😝 They have cheaper woods though that would probably work just as well.
The shelves are 33" long, which is long enough to fit 7 pops (in soft pop protectors) across. Place them 7" apart and there will be just enough room on top to pull them out with your finger.
I messed up though... lets just say I didn't intend on putting Dorbz on the top, lol. There's more than 7" between shelves. But, hey, the dorbz fit nice though.
I wanted the extra edge in front of the pop for mystery minis. But if you'd rather, you could use 2.5" (or 3") width all around and the pops would probably show a little better.
Lastly, I used D-Ring ring "Picture Hangers" on the top corners of the unit: https://www.amazon.com/Heavy-Duty-D-Ring-Picture-Hangers/dp/B017DQ9GC6/ref=sr_1_1
And "Monkey Hooks" in the walls: https://www.amazon.com/Monkey-Hook-Picture-Hanger-Office/dp/B001KVMNPI/ref=sr_1_3
I suck at finding studs, but those hooks can hold over 50 lbs. each in just drywall. And you push them into the wall with your fingers. They're amazing.
I was going to say, basic stud finders are usually around $12. Some of them have AC voltage detection features built in as well so you don't electrocute yourself.
Really though, the easy way to do things is to buy some Monkey Hooks or equivalent. Then you can just say screw it and put most things where ever you want - as long as you don't hit a stud.
use gorilla hooks they hold a huge amount (especially if you use several spaced a few inches apart), and they only put a sight pinhole in the wall. You can cover it up when you leave with a bit of spackle in the pinhole.
I have mine hung on the wall https://cl.ly/433ae036f4dd
Using these hooks. Easy to install and when you want to remove leaves a small hole https://www.amazon.com/Monkey-Hook-Picture-Hanger-Office/dp/B001KVMNPI/ref=sr_1_1_sspa
You can use picture hangers or monkey hooks. Both of these come with weight ratings, so get something rated to hold the weight of your picture or more.
Can you easily press a thumb tack into the wall? Then it is drywall. You can hammer a nail or push the hook straight into drywall. If the wall is plaster, first drill a hole slightly smaller than the nail or hook you are using, then gently hammer or push into the pre-drilled hole.

Always been my worst fear with mine, and 3 hang above my PC. I wouldn't even use nails, man. Try these. Haven't failed me yet and can hold their weight. See here.
The maintenance guy came over today morning to fix something, so I just asked him. He said it is sheetrock. Is that the same as drywall? Do I still have studs placed at regular intervals behind that I should use to hang heavy stuff? Also, would you happen to know if I can use Monkey Hooks on sheetrock?
Most people do - either those or picture hooks which don't require any tools at all. Anchors and screws are for much heavier installations, think a heavy mirror etc.
