1. A fiber management organizer for a telecommunications closure, comprising:
a) a main body defining a first cable management region and a second cable management region, the main body extending along a longitudinal axis; and
b) a tray assembly extending over at least a portion of the first cable management region, the tray assembly including:
i) a tower mounted to the main body;
ii) a plurality of trays rotatably mounted to the tower such that the trays are rotatable about an axis orthogonal to the longitudinal axis; and
iii) a demarcation cover defining an interior space and being rotatably mounted to the tower such that the demarcation tray is rotatable about an axis orthogonal to the longitudinal axis;
c) wherein, when the demarcation cover is in a closed position, at least a portion of the plurality of trays is received within the interior space, and wherein the first cable management region is inaccessible and the second cable management region is accessible, and
d) wherein, when the demarcation cover is in an open position, the first and second cable management regions are each accessible.
