book holder

Page-spreading desk accessory

A book holder is a device that props open a book at a readable angle, freeing both hands for other tasks.

Students use them while typing notes, cooks use them in kitchens to keep recipes visible: I need a book holder so I can read while I eat.

The term also applies to stands displaying books in shops or on shelves.
