Such is the tale of the pictured bookstand. It's moved all over the building for a number of years. Yes, bookstands generally hold books. But what books? And where? Then it hit. We should display new Genealogy/Reference books!! We already do this for fiction, non-fiction, videos, audiobooks, etc., so why not in Genealogy? A new book is easily overshadowed by all the other items in that collection and may go unnoticed for quite sometime because researchers believe they've seen all the books we have on a certain location or topic. Just look at all the wonderful new resources that might have been missed but are now on display:
