The invention relates to a storage container for recording media with a housing, open at the front, that accommodates a plurality of holders for in each case at least one recording medium, wherein a front covering over the interior of the housing is provided and the holders are individually displaceable towards the front out of the housing into a position in which the recording medium disposed therein can easily be grasped, and with indicating means arranged in the region of the front and visible through indicator windows (104) in the front, which holders are occupied by recording media. In order to be able to see in the dark whether or not a holder is occupied, indicating means are provided which comprise light sources that are visible from the outside through the windows and which include associated switch-over means which are operable by the removal and insertion of a recording medium into a holder.
