Show Books That Have Been Read

Is there a way to show all read books on the main library view?

Here we are going to create a binary Yes/No type column with column heading "Read", look up name "read" and column type Yes/No. The entry Yes in this column indicates the book is read and No indicates the book is not yet read.

I use "finished"; "read" could be future or past tense while finished is clearer.

I don't need to know when I added a book; so, I clear the Date column when I add a book, and when I finish a book I enter today's date (F2, '=', Enter).
