The invention provides an optical information recording medium, for use with
a laser irradiating a laser beam having a wavelength of 380 to 500 nm through an
objective lens with a numerical aperture of at least 0.7, the optical information
recording medium comprising, in the following order: a substrate; a recording layer;
a layer of acrylic adhesive; and a cover layer. A light reflecting layer may be
provided between the substrate and the recording layer. Also a cover layer formed
by an acrylic adhesive material may be provided instead of the layer of the acrylic
adhesive material and the cover layer.
