It's a Spectrum Diversified nickel cookbook holder.
You can see it on Amazon here
One thing I don't see here that I have found really useful is a textbook stand like this
Stops you from having to crane your neck over your desk constantly
I don't think a flimsy hanger is going to hold onto my 1263 page hardcover cookbook. Maybe a magazine or a page. But definitely not a book. My smallest cookbook is 192 pages and I doubt it would even hold that.
They actually sell under cabinet cookbook holders. They are a bit pricey but so are some of my cookbooks. But they keep them off the counter so you don't get ingredients on them which is nice.
Here's one on Amazon.
I have this one. It looks a little flimsy, but it's held up to every book I've used in it, and it's significantly less bulky than the wooden ones a lot of my classmates use.
You get book stands to display such things, on a dresser or shelf or whatever. Pick a cool archipelago or some such, and watch the attention it gets. People (including yourself) will also want to flick through book all the time if you display it this way.
Something like this
Or you could make one yourself.
Don't cut them up :( You'll thank me in years to come.
I use a wire book holder, like the sort you're supposed to use for cookbooks. I found a wire one that folds up nicely to go in my bag, band also allows it to accommodate a decent range of book sizes. Since I can't knit and read very fast at the same time, it's all right by me that I still have to put my work down to change pages.

I absolutely love my Joseph Joseph cookbook holder: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B006BSBWMA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_bzDtybFP2CWSE
Was cheaper when I bought if for myself, but https://www.amazon.com/Mighty-Bright-37401-Fold-n-Stow-Holder/dp/1891747401/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1496145924&sr=8-2&keywords=folding+cookbook+stand
Yup, cookbook holder
Like this one. There should be another piece of clear plastic that fits into the slots, to hold the book up
It's this one: cookbook holder.
Looks like OP might need a second
glassplexiglass/acrylic sheet to hold a book upright under theglasscover.http://thesweethome.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2015/12/03-cookbook-holder-delixe-large-630.jpg
Definitely no glass. I would not even koozie a can. Discrete flasks and/or the red solo cup.
Just drink fast so the drink don't get warm, or use those plastic drink ice cubes.

I used to have one for recipe cards that had little labeled dividers in it. Looked kinda like this but you could write your own labels.
See if your art store has a wood section—you might find decent-sized wooden boxes. Slap a little stain or paint on one and it would look more professional than plastic.
Unpopular opinion maybe but I bought myself a recipe box. Like a physical wooden box (this one) then got some 5x7 index cards and A-Z dividers from Staples. I made a key for which letters are what categories (including Desserts, other baked goods, seasonal, Gluten free, veggies, rice and pasta, etc etc) and I put recipes in there either by typing and printing onto the card or doing it by hand - I prefer to write them by hand
The box comes with a nifty little card sleeve so when I'm cooking/baking the card stays clean.
So yeah, i'm like a 20 year old with a wooden recipe box
there are some full size page protectors that are divided into 2 sections that you can keep your cards in like the ones in this set

Ditto what they said.
Here is one http://www.amazon.com/EASEL-DESIGN-SCROLL-COOKBOOK-HOLDER/dp/B00G4D89SC/ref=sr_1_18?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1412739784&sr=1-18&keywords=metal+cookbook+stand
Here is a cook set

What about a cookbook stand? Something like this would be gorgeous!
Sure, I’ve actually inherited the one I use so I’ve never had to look for them. Googling “recipe box” came up with the right thing, tons of options online or in craft stores, like this https://www.amazon.com/Oceanstar-Bamboo-Recipe-Divider-Natural/dp/B00U8PYERM?keywords=recipe+box&qid=1537285446&sr=8-3&ref=mp_s_a_1_3
Love it! I refer to my CS books a lot and it's extremely helpful so that I can read as I do work. Here's a link!

Gonna recommend the recipe book too.

A second monitor.
A good backpack. Also, make note--the wheeled backpacks that were for losers in high school? They are totally worth consideration in law school. If you can roll your books instead of carrying them--so much easier on your back.
A bookstand --make sure it can support textbooks at least 4 inches thick. You will spend a ton of time reading. If you can reduce the time your neck is craned downward you will be happy.
Dress clothes. You will start wearing them all the time come 1L summer and you really can't even have too many.
I like to outline and stuff on a whiteboard so I have a couple up in my office. If that works with your study style--get some.
Supplements. They are freaking expensive but can be incredibly helpful at times. I would say ask for E&Es for the first year courses but hold off on getting flashcards until you know if you need them or not.
you can go for something like a sheet music stand or book stand, something like this or maybe this
Elevate everything as much as possible to maximize desk space.
Put your laptop on a stand and use a small external keyboard and mouse.
Elevate your books to create more usable space: https://www.amazon.com/OliaDesign-Fold-n-Stow-Book-Stand-Black/dp/B00OYCUK3M/ref=zg_bs_490620011_8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=RWC81EEBD3A6B47QHEHP something like that will help
So are you buying a cookbook that already has recipes or are you asking for guest recipes? For my sister's wedding, I sent out recipe cards with shower invitations and encouraged guests to bring them to the shower instead of gifts. This meant guests didn't feel bad coming empty handed, but my sister gets a previous gift from each of her guests. 11/10 would recommend.
Something like this was what I used.
I may not quite be picturing what you're describing, but would something like this work?
Happy Birthday! I hope all these comments make you smile and know that others wish you a great day. Your 30's will be awesome, trust me!
Pros - No batteries dying, no electronics in the kitchen getting dirty, no screens timing out and turning off, no fumbling around with a touch screen when your hands are covered in dough or oil. Super easy to make notes if you change something on the fly.
Cons - Not searchable, but if you have it well organized it isn't much harder to find things than looking it up on the internet.
Personally, I would never go back. I only use my tablet for new recipes. If it's a success they get added to the box for next time.
Look for recipe card sleeves 4x6 their "penny" sleeve quality but work for 4x5 cards. Another option is vinyl passport sleeves.
They're called book stands or book holders. You can find them at stationery stores. Here's a quick search result on Amazon for you...

here you go. It works for all my texts, but it didn't stand up to the Tax Text that my roommate has.
When I was in law school we had tons of reading to do from extremely weighty books. I got one of these foldable book stands to hold my books while I took notes or during class. It was super helpful both at home and at school. I also had a classmate who had joint problems from a car accident and found it hard to sit for long periods, she really liked standing desks. (Edited to add: At my school, the library had these plastic table things that you could put on a regular desk to raise it to standing desk height. You were allowed to check them out to bring to class or use around campus.)
What are you in grad school for?
I don't use one only because I haven't gotten around to buying a proper one. I usually prop up my books using other text books, but I wish I had a proper one - I've developed some minor neck pain because I am the ultimate weenie and my body is like "lol, no" when it comes to studying.
It is especially useful if you are reading a book and simultaneously taking notes on it on a computer - instead of having to look down and up constantly, you can look side to side. other redditors may be able to chime in on how useful it is - you can read some comments in this thread: http://www.reddit.com/r/LawSchool/comments/2dtusm/reading_tips_and_techniques/
the following two have been recommended on the law school subreddit in the past:
