A slide tray package has, in combination, a slide tray for holding a recording medium (such as a compact disc or audio cassette) and a housing therefor. In the slide tray a receiving area is disposed between the ends and sides thereof for receiving the recording medium for horizontal movement therewith. The slide tray leading end is adapted for automated loading of the slide tray into the housing by being both horizontally tapered and vertically beveled to facilitate telescopic insertion of the slide tray leading end through a leading end of the housing and into a trailing end of the housing. The slide tray trailing end defines a vertically protruding lip configured and dimensioned as a stop for engaging a leading end of the housing to limit the telescopic insertion of the slide tray into the housing. In the housing, the leading end of each of the top and bottom housing faces is configured and dimensioned to enable direct grasping of the slide tray by the user, and the leading end of each of the housing sides is configured and dimensioned to frictionally engage the slide tray, thereby to inhibit accidental telescopic slippage of the slide tray out of the housing.
