A paper sheet storage unit includes a first circulation unitand a second circulation unitthat respectively receive transported paper sheets upon reception of a drive force from a single motorand feed paper sheets stored therein, a sorterthat sorts paper sheets to either one of the circulation units, and a drive transmission switching mechanismthat transmits a drive force from the motor to either one of the circulation units. The drive transmission switching mechanism is activated in conjunction with an operation to change the posture of the sorter, thereby switching and transmitting the drive force to either one of the circulation units.
