## Abstract

A display apparatus includes an acquisition section, a specification section, and a display controller. The acquisition section acquires page information indicative of a page of a reference destination of a book. The specification section specifies a location, which corresponds to the acquired page information, on a fore edge of the book. The display controller performs control such that an image indicative of the specified location on the fore edge is superimposedly displayed on the fore edge which is seen through a display provided in the display apparatus that is mounted on a user.

### Claim 5 (depends on 3)

The display apparatus according to claim 3,
wherein the display controller performs control such that the image is not displayed in a case where the reception section receives information which indicates that the process performed in another apparatus restarts.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The display apparatus according to claim 4,
wherein the display controller performs control such that the image is not displayed in a case where the reception section receives information which indicates that the process performed in another apparatus restarts.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The display apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:
a recognition section that recognizes the page information indicative of the open page of the book,
wherein the acquisition section acquires a spot of the reference destination together with the page information, and
wherein the display controller performs control such that an image indicative of the spot of the reference destination is superimposedly displayed on the page recognized by the recognition section.

### Claim 8 (depends on 3)

The display apparatus according to claim 3, further comprising:
a recognition section that recognizes the page information indicative of the open page of the book,
wherein the acquisition section acquires a spot of the reference destination together with the page information, and
wherein the display controller performs control such that an image indicative of the spot of the reference destination is superimposedly displayed on the page recognized by the recognition section.

### Claim 9 (depends on 4)

The display apparatus according to claim 4, further comprising:
a recognition section that recognizes the page information indicative of the open page of the book,
wherein the acquisition section acquires a spot of the reference destination together with the page information, and
wherein the display controller performs control such that an image indicative of the spot of the reference destination is superimposedly displayed on the page recognized by the recognition section.

### Claim 10 (depends on 7)

The display apparatus according to claim 7,
wherein the display controller performs control such that an image indicative of the page of the reference destination relevant to an operation to be performed subsequent to an operation corresponding to the spot of the reference destination is superimposedly displayed on the fore edge.

### Claim 11 (depends on 8)
