How Do You Remove CD Booklet/Artwork?


This seems like such a simple question, I shouldn’t even be making a thread but I have yet to find a good answer. 
How do you remove the CD booklet or artwork quickly, easily and without damaging it?

With the CD open, in order to slide the booklet out to the left, there are two protrusions the booklet must clear. Typically I put a fingernail under the artwork and lift but every once in awhile it makes a small fold near where I lift it which damages it. There’s got to be a better way. 

Thanks!

I replaced the hard plastic boxes for soft plastic envelopes. Takes up about 80% less space in a dedicated 'drawer' filing system (I have an excessive amount of CD's).  The envelope has has pockets on each of it two sides,one for the disc the other for the CD Booklet. It also hgas a space on the top edge of the disc Id taken from the side of the CD Case insert. I file them just as you would find them in an old record store and its fun to look thru them and see all of the covers, not just hard to read side labels.
