The present invention relates to a holder for keyboards of the type used in computer work, said holder having the form of a separate attachment comprising a carrier (8) which serves to support the keyboard and which is hingedly connected to a supporting part which is adapted to abut and rest against a base. The carrier (8) is turnable to permit adjustment of the keyboard at an angle relative to a horizontal plane, more specifically between on the one hand a first horizontal position and, on the other hand, a second raised position where an upper side of the keyboard is directed away from the user at an angle of at least 30° relative to the horizontal plane. The carrier (8) is hingedly connected to the supporting part adjacent to a rear longitudinal side edge and is, with a front longitudinal side edge raisable and, by means of a locking device, lockable in the raised position at an angle to the supporting part.
