I am thinking of purchasing this for a friend. One of the reviewer's comments is that it only "works on small paperbacks." I want to know will this work on hardcover books such as books obtained from a library. Also, the devices that keep the book open to the correct page, can a person with severely deformed hands (juvenile rheumatoid arthritic) manage to clip and un-clip easily enough or will person find device "more trouble than it's worth"?
The Hold-and-Read Page Holders are best suited for paperback books. If you're interested in something that will hold a little more than paperback, check out the Robert's Book Holder (Product #: ARB300). It has easy to move pegs depending on the thickness of the book or item.
