Abstract
A storage container intended primarily for magnetic data-storage diskettes comprises a box having a series of opposed slots for receiving the diskettes, and a series of flip-up identifying tabs supported on a bar extending across the opening of the box along one edge thereof. The tabs either grasp the bar frictionally, or are provided with inwardly projecting detent ribs which cooperate with flutes in the bar to hold the tabs in their open positions for diskette removal and replacement or in their closed positions. When a tab is moved to its open position, only the diskette corresponding to the tab can be removed from the container. The tabs are designed to carry identifying indicia so that the corresponding diskettes can be readily located.
