Abstract
A reading device includes a platen having a first face, reading means for reading the document via the platen accommodated in a frame portion, a holder that holds image sensor such that the frame portion is in contact with a second face of the platen, and a guide member that extends in a scanning direction of the image sensor, and to which the holder is movably attached. The holder has, on an upstream side in the scanning direction with respect to the image sensor, a contact portion that contacts the frame portion. The contact portion contacts the frame portion so as to be capable of displacing a position of contact with the frame portion in a direction intersecting the second face. The image sensor reads the document while moving under force that the frame portion receives from the contact portion.
