Multi-media librarial storage system

A multi-media librarial storage system including a plurality of individual book-like storage containers is described. Each individual book-like storage container within the system is adapted to receive a plurality of interchangeable receiver inserts configured and dimensioned to retain a variety of multi-media cassette packages such as the common Philips audio cassette, video tape packages of the familiar VHS, VHS-C/8mm video cassettes, digital audio tape (DAT) cassettes, CD-ROMs, computer software diskettes, and other related multi-media items. The receiver inserts disposed within the storage containers are fabricated from sheets of foldable materials such as paperboard using cut and fold techniques common to the packaging industry. Interchangeability among a plurality of differently configured and dimensioned receiver inserts is achieved by the use of integral locking tabs formed on the receiver inserts which are installed within mating slots formed within the individual storage containers. Detachable fastening means are interposed between the interchangeable receiver inserts and the interior surfaces of the storage containers to secure the same in their functional position. The multi-media librarial storage system is provided with alpha/numeric labels which are applied to the book-like spine of the storage containers to identify items stored therein and to facilitate retrieval. The multi-media librarial storage system is provided with a companion index volume wherein the user may identify and catalog items stored within the system by the identificaton labels.
