The invention discloses an image reading device. A light guide (1) is equipped with: a first emission section (1b) for emitting first outgoing light; a second emission section (1c) for emitting secondoutgoing light in a different direction from that of the first outgoing light; and a reflection section (1a) for reflecting light which enters the inside of the light guard toward the first emissionsection (1b) and toward the second emission section (1c). The first emission section (1b) and the second emission section (1c) respectively have a first curved surface and a second curved surface eachhaving a convex cross-section orthogonal to the length direction thereof. The second emission section (1c) is connected to the first emission section (1b) in a direction orthogonal to the length direction. In a plane facing the first emission section (1b) and the second emission section (1c), the reflection section (1a) is located at a position which is shifted in a direction orthogonal to the length direction from the pos
