A selectively adaptable holder or carrier for recordings ("records") is disclosed which includes a universally configured base (record-holder) which is made to be slidably receivable within a sleeve-like outer package component, and a plurality of different record-retaining members that are interchangeably mountable upon a universal mount structure provided on the base. In one embodiment, the universal mount structure may comprise a cylindrical projection formed centrally on the base, and the interchangeable, selectively mountable record-retaining members may include a corresponding cylindrical recess to fit over such projection, to be secured thereto by adhesive or other bonding agent or process. Each of the record-retaining members preferably includes an elastically yieldable interlock structure which is extendable through a corresponding aperture in the record member or its outer housing or case, and has portions overlying at least part of the record member or its case so as to interlock the latter onto the universal mount structure and base. Examples of three different such record-retaining structures are disclosed, but the specific record-engagement structure of the same is optional so long as the interchangeable mounting is maintained.
