A book holder designed for library cataloging The Atlas for Library Cataloging |
|
 |
The Atlas-LC is the result of
iterative design in cooperation with a leading US library. Built to take the wear and tear
of cataloging, Atlas-LCs are now in use in several libraries around the country. The Atlas-LC has a footprint 12 inches wide and 11 inches deep – thus using less desk space than most opened books. Its 4-inch by 14-inch shelf is supported by three stainless steel pins, which can be adjusted up or down at 1.25-inch increments. The shelf accommodates extremely large books, and supports both the binding and the pages themselves. Its stainless steel page stoppers can be placed midway back on the shelf, making it ideal for holding books open for cataloging. |
| It is constructed of special
heavy-duty birch plywood, which lends it strength, stability and durability. Six 2-inch
and six 3-inch stainless steel page stoppers are standard with each book holder. The Atlas-LC has a convenient pencil well, for storing pencils and/or page stoppers. An Owner’s Guide, included with each Atlas-LC, contains useful Ergonomic Guidelines as well as tips on use of the book holder. The Atlas-LC is stocked in black. For quantity orders, custom colors are available. Booster boxes can be custom-ordered to any height, depending on the configuration of the workstation. |
