<p>A booklet medium-handling device having a simplified structure which makes it possible to realize a stable operation for closing a passbook. A page turning mechanism (booklet medium-handling device) conveys a passbook to a predetermined position in a state of a movable guide raised to open part of an upper surface of a conveying path. The page turning mechanism conveys the passbook until one end thereof is guided by the movable guide in a state having one end thereof pushed up by a pusher. After retracting the pusher from the conveying path, the page turning mechanism presses down the passbook in a closing direction by inclining the movable guide. The page turning mechanism supports a page to be closed backward using a conveying roller and the movable guide, thereby closing the passbook while keeping the same folded at a sharp angle about a binding stitch line portion.</p> |
