Document holder for holding one or more sheets of paper in a generally upright position having a curvilinear element which engages the underside of a vertically inclined sheet of paper in fulcrum-like fashion along a horizontally extending line no higher than the vertical centerline of the paper and imparts an upwardly concave curvature to the paper which enables the paper to extend for at least one-half of its length above the fulcrum without buckling under its own weight. The lower portion of the paper is held in a fixed position so that the paper does not rotate about the fulcrum due to the weight of the paper above the fulcrum. The embodiments disclosed include modular units for use on walls and other vertical surfaces, circular units with rotary bases for use on countertops and other horizontal surfaces and a copy holder for use on desks and the like.
