The inner face of the panel is provided for engaging and supporting upright copy for study or review. A slide clip is slidably receivable over an upper or side edge of the panel for adjustably engaging copy against the inner face of the panel with applied pressure. The legs of the clip are biased to apply pressure toward each other for engaging copy against the support panel. The front arm or arms of the clip provide one or more reference lines for indexing copy indicia.
