Book holders, also known as book stands or reading stands, are assistive devices designed to hold books, documents, or tablets at an adjustable angle for hands-free reading. This accommodation supports individuals who experience difficulty holding reading materials due to limited hand strength, dexterity challenges, or fatigue. By keeping reading materials stable and at eye level, book holders reduce strain on the neck, shoulders, and hands, promoting better posture and comfort. These tools are commonly used by people with arthritis, repetitive strain injuries, or neurological conditions that affect fine motor skills. Book holders enhance accessibility by making reading and studying more comfortable and efficient in various settings, including classrooms, workplaces, and home offices.
Place the book or document securely on the holder’s adjustable platform, setting the angle to a comfortable viewing position that minimizes neck strain. Use clips or page holders if available to keep pages open without manual effort. Position the book holder on a stable surface at eye level, and adjust lighting to reduce glare. Regularly clean the device to prevent dust buildup and check for any loose parts to maintain stability. Using the book holder consistently during reading or work sessions can improve comfort and productivity.
