It is the stand from where The Bible is read, so it will be at the front of the church usually opposite the pulpit (from where the sermon is preached) in the part of the church called a chancel.

A lectern is a movable reading desk of wood or metal used to support the sacred books used in liturgical ceremonies. When stationary, they may be very elaborately decorated. Since Vatican II, there are usually two, one on each side of the sanctuary, and there may be a small one on the altar to support the Missal.
