I bought this item to use as a book stand. It does not work for this purpose! What a waste of my time and money. If you have a book that will stay open when you lay it flat, then that book MIGHT work with the stand. Paperback books, of most common sizes, will not stay open when placed in the "stand". If you want a book stand look elswhere -- I will.

This folio is a great tool when working in the theatre. As a Lighting Designer, this folio is excellent. I use it primarily when taking notes during run-throughs. It's very easy to flip the light on and off & helps from being distracting.
During focusing & channel checks it's great because once you focus a few lights, it often gets hard to see with spots in front of your eyes. . . this little baby throws light where you need it; on your paperwork!
Also holds paper, pens/pencil, etc.

I gave this product as a gift for my wife's birthday because she reads a lot. Before she had this article she was very uncomfortable and she felt her arms very tired.
Now she reads on bed with a table and she's happy because she doesn't has to use her arms. She reads books like Barbara Wood's, Harry Potter with no problem. The only thing we had to adapt is putting an elastic, because the book supports are not so strong to have the book open. (Sorry for my english, i speak spanish).

What a great friend this case has been. Prop up a book and read with light, lighted clipboard, pencil case, paper storage, all in one package. AWESOME! This has been my favorite clipboard for years.

One thing, because the back folds up for display functionality, it's not perfectly smooth for writing. You must have a cardboard backing for writing on full pages. That's it. small payoff if you ask me.
