[opal_migration_leads] new book shelf / display

Hi all,
Has anyone investigated how they will process books for their "new books
shelf" if you use that? It seems like we will need an Alma location for
this. See some other library workflows:

https://emory.screenstepslive.com/s/alma/m/stacks/l/522559-adding-and-removing-items-from-a-temporary-location

(These are essentially the same process - and would be similar for putting
things on display which would also need a location -?)
My understanding from yesterday's meeting is that we can add locations in
Alma at this time and they will be retained as part of our configuration at
cutover. Since there's nothing in Sierra that will match, it will just be
an empty location until we start entering new things in Alma.

Any thoughts on this?
Thanks! Lauren
