The rack is an interesting idea.  I wouldn't find it useful for me though.

In my class of 7th graders, they either copy the charts as we make them or I
copy them and they tape them into their notebooks.  I find they DO refer
back to them when they are close as easily accessible.  And I find them
marking them up and adding to them.  Anything on the walls is purely for
show.

Before I used interactive notebooks I would put the titles of the charts on
the bottom of the chat as well as the top.  I would staple them overlapping
from the bottom of a bulletin board, so the newest one is on the top.  The
kids could see easily where the chart was like a table of contents.  They
would get up and hold the charts up so they could see for each other is they
needed to.

Just a couple of ideas...

Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, let go of what you can't
change, kiss slowly, play hard, forgive quickly, take chances, give
everything, have no regrets.. Life's too short to be anything but happy.
