Grading comment
I needed to convey the meaning of "board" and that of a "paper holder". I did not feel that the "clip" part is the most significant, although Al-Mawrid does cite "لوح مشبكي". The term I used is close to a combination of Muhammad and Ali Hasson's suggestions. Thanks to all for the valuable suggestions, including Amr, who provided an explanation rather than a translation (just a running joke that he and Saleh Ayub will understand:)
