Books That Did Not Circulate #738

We would like to add a new set of books to the database: books that were held by the lending library, but do not have circulation records.

(Beach kept inventories of lending library books. I have found two inventories so far: one from 1919 and one from 1926–1940. Books from these inventories will complement the books with circulation records from the lending library cards.)

If we add these books, we'll need a way to show visitors to the site that the books did not circulate. We could replace the line "x events" with "No circulation records" or a similar phrase if there are 0 events in the database.

We may also want a column in the data exports: circulated yes or no. We'll know more when we have the notebooks transcribed.
