Abstract

A storage cabinet for recorded media such as audio cassettes, compact discs, video tapes, etc. is formed by a plurality of identical modules. Each module includes top and bottom attachment devices for releasably joining together adjacent modules into a vertical stacked relationship by snap fitting said modules together. A bearing member is removably attached to the bottom surface of the lowermost module for rotatably mounting the stacked joined modules on a support surface. Each of the storage compartments is formed with a plurality of separate storage spaces for receiving individual recorded media. A top cover includes an attachment device for snap fitting it on the top portion of the uppermost module by engagement with the attachment device of said uppermost module. The storage spaces may vary in size for receiving the same or different recorded media within the same module or storage compartment thereof.
