ABSTRACT:
This comprises a lightweight support for books and magazines comprising a baseboard which seats on the lap of the user or other substantially horizontal surface, and a book plate which is adjustable to a desired angular position relative to the baseboard. A particular feature is a tensioning mechanism for holding the pages in place which comprises a line anchored between an adjustable spool at one end and a detachable elastically-biased hook at the other end, which functions to hold the center of the reading material relatively perpendicular to the reader's line of sight.
