ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An optical information reproducing apparatus for reproducing an information recorded on a recording surface of a disc shape record medium is disclosed which includes an optical pick up device mounted on a tiltable optical block and having a laser beam source for generating a laser beam and a photo detector for detecting the reflected beam from the recording surface and for reading the recorded information, a skew error detector mounted on the tiltable optical block and for detecting the skew of the record medium and a skew error corrector controlled by the output of the skew error detector and for controlling the optical block so that the optical axis of the pick up device is maintained to be perpendicular to the recording surface. In this case, the skew error detector includes a diffusion light source, a divided photo detector and a lens, the light source and the divided photo detector which are arranged symmetrical with respect to the axis parallel with the optical axis of the optical pick up device, the light irradiated from the light source and reflected from the recording surface is directed to the divided photo detector through the lens such that a real image of the diffusion light source is formed on the divided photo detector, and the difference between the light amounts detected by respective areas of the divided photo detector represents the skew error output of the skew error detector.
