Abstract
A holder for a rigid information disc comprises a rectangular frame which includes a first disc-supporting section near a first peripheral side of the frame and a second disc-supporting section adjoining a second peripheral side located opposite the first side. The frame carries movable clamping means for clamping the information disc onto the frame. The frame is at least in part resiliently deflectable and is capable of returning from a deflected position to a flat position. The first and the second disc-supporting sections are interconnected by at least one resilient connecting element which permits deflection of the frame into the deflected position in which position the first and the second peripheral sides extend at least substantially parallel to each other. The clamping means can be actuated; the clamping means are situated near the connecting elements and in the deflected position of the frame do not release the information disc until these means have been actuated.
