Abstract
A notebook binder having a binder cover, a tray and a tray lid. The tray is fixed to the binder cover and has a peripheral ridge that defines a tray opening for receiving articles. The tray lid includes a first portion that forms a flat working surface and a second portion in sliding engagement with the tray between a closed position wherein the tray lid covers the tray opening and an extended position wherein the tray lid is adjacent the tray opening with the tray opening uncovered. The tray lid further includes a support ridge projecting below the flat working surface to support the flat working surface in a substantially level orientation relative to the binder cover when the tray lid is in the extended position.
