ABSTRACT A diskette storage container is formed of molded plastic parts which are snap-fit and pivotally connected together. A substantially rectangular base member 12 has upwardly rising side walls 14, and cams disposed on the bottom, inside of and adjacent the side walls. A cover member 28 is pivotally connected to the base 12 so that the rear edge of the cover passes into the base. A diskette support member 30 is pivotally mounted to the cover member 28 and includes camming surfaces 34 which ride on the cams 51 as the cover is rotated toward its open position. The pivotal connection 16 is disposed rearwardly of the centroid of the diskette support member 30. A notch 37 in the camming surfaces is positioned to engage the cams 51 when the cover is fully opened. This allows the diskette support member 30 to drop forward a predetermined distance which improves accessibility to the diskettes. Tabs 36 are provided near the forward extremity of the camming surfaces 34 for engagement with the cam 51 when the container is closed. A locking arrangement includes a latch mechanism 70 that engages a slot 22 in the diskette support member and a key rotated locking finger 74 is positioned so as to hold the latch in the locked position.
