Kristina and Yuki,
We did exactly the same thing when I was Head of the Art/Arch Library at Miami University.  Important parts of this process were that the books were ready to circulate and there was a lot of seating nearby.

  Kristina,

We have a very popular New Book Shelf area in the Fine Arts Library
that has plenty of seating nearby.  We change the display every  week
by taking the books down on Sunday night. We have about 150 books a
week and we allow users to check out any of the items when they
want.  When the new books come in, we charge them out to a patron
called "FANEWBOOKS",  thereby alleviating the need to go back into a
record and change locations.  When they come off the shelf, they are
discharged and show a stacks location.
Come by and visit and we can show you.

yours,  lucie
