ABSTRACT:
A bookholder with a base member having a longitudinally extending base portion forward from a U-shaped rod defining a first planar surface; a support member having a longitudinally extending support portion formed from another U-shaped rod defining a second planar surface; a book carrier mounted on the support member having book-supporting ledges; and a transverse coupling member with pairs of holes arranged to receive and hold both the base portion rod and the support portion rod so the first and second planar surfaces intersect at a preselected included angle. The book carrier is movable along the support member to adjust the height of the book carrier with respect to the coupling member. The base member rod is movable with respect to the coupling member between a first "suspending mode" position when the selected included angle is approximately between 90.degree. and 130.degree., into a second "table supporting mode" position when the selected included angle is between 90.degree. and 50.degree..
