A device for positioning reading material for use by a person in the horizontal position. The device includes a frame, including a base, a vertical arm extending above the base, and a horizontal arm extending over the location of the person. Also included is a housing for mounting the horizontal portion of the frame. The housing includes a back plate extending horizontally in the frame and a reader plate frame for housing a reader plate. The reader plate frame is below the back plate and is spaced therefrom to position reading material in an open orientation facing the person. Also include are first and second clear reader plates mounted horizontally in the reader plate frame to enclose both sides of reading material while leaving a spaced region between the plates for access to the reading material by a person in the horizontal position. An adjustable leaf spring is located on the exterior of the first reader plate for receiving the end of pages of reading material moved from under said the plate through the spaced region. The spring, which is adjustable to reach only the edge of the page, holds the pages which have been turned on the exterior of the first reader plate so the person can read the other side of the page.
