What was the last thing you searched for online? Why were you looking for it?
The last thing I searched on the Internet was ‘plexiglass for books’.These are only keywords.What I’m really looking for is how to use plexiglass to keep my book open when I’m trying to take a picture of a particular page.
I wouldn’t be looking for that if Mauritian customs regulations weren’t so stringent.Apart from books,which are exempt from customs duties and vat,everything else cost thrice or twice its price when imported here.So I cannot buy a book stand from eBay or Amazon and thus,will have to learn from book-aficionados how to use plexiglass as a book holder.

An interesting post! I had a similar problem, which I provisionally solved by large binder clips:

Just a tip for a cheap solution, but the plexiglass would probably be better.
Thanks!! 🙂
I totally forgot about those clips! At least these can be found in my country.They are quite popular with art students.
I will use them for my ordinary paperbacks and hardbacks,but will have to find another solution for my Folio books.Maybe I will try to ask a relative to buy a book-stand for me when she will go abroad.
