ABSTRACT:
An improved bookholder consists of a box with a base and an opening at the top, a lid for the box which is pivotable from a first position extending in a substantially vertical direction above the base to a second position in which the lid covers the opening of the box, a pair of separately movable arms with ledges for supporting a book on the ledges when the lid is open, means for holding said book on the ledges and against the lid, the arms being arranged to be moved to a location on the lid where they will enter the opening of the box as the lid is pivoted to the second position. In its preferred form, the arms are attached to the lid to be pivotable, together with fixing means for holding them in selected positions, and are also hinged in the middle. An illuminating lamp is contained in the box, and arranged to illuminate the pages of the book.
