The Microdesk Document Holder and Writing Surface provides an elevated secondary work surface directly between the keyboard and the monitor. Made of transparent, heavy-duty plastic, the Microdesk is designed to straddle the rear edge of the keyboard, creating a stable, sloping platform for hand-writing tasks, as well as support for documents, books, mobile devices and other workstation essentials such as calculators or sticky notes. By allowing simultaneous inline access to materials and to the keyboard, this multi-function accessory enhances workstation comfort and convenience. Users can avoid the discomfort of twisting to the side, or of reaching over the keyboard to write; or the inconvenience of having to move the keyboard aside whenever they want to jot down notes.
