The New Book Display is located on low slanted shelving to the right of Service Zone 3 (when coming into the Library).
Books are sorted according to the workday (Monday to Friday) when they are made available. The day is clearly marked on the shelves.
The books remain on the New Book Display for one week. That is: books added on a Monday are removed on the following Monday. These books are then shelved by LC call number on the open shelves.
The slanted shelves mean that book titles and covers are clearly displayed, so books are not maintained in a strict LC order.
New Book Display books can be borrowed from the display, using the Self-Checkers opposite Service Zone 2.
Note that new journal issues are not held on the New Book Display, but are either next to them on the Current Serials shelves or, if there is no LC call number listing for the journal on these shelves, on the open shelves.
