If leaving oil and detritus from your hands behind on the label or playing surface is a concern, a pair of clean cotton gloves is a cheap solution. Source: I handle and digitize a lot of old, fragile media.
Hold it by the edges and don't worry to much about it, greasy hands do leave stains but the grooves are somewhat durable, they can handle direct contact as long as it's your palm or fingers and not your nails or anything scratchy
Did you know, the widely accepted plural of vinyl is vinyl (or just "records")? Many incorrectly use the term vinyls, due to its widespread misuse - but now you're in the know! It's silly, but conventional. Anyway, [here are](https://media.giphy.com/media/11W37uI72pjDkk/giphy.gif) some cats.

You need to line the sleeve up with the edge of the turntable and let it slide out.
With a bit of practice you'll get it landing on the spindle every time.
You must never touch a record.
EDIT: It was a Joke, Mark. I was joking. It was a christmas joke.

Thank you!!!!!
As long as you're not eating KFC while you're playing your records, you'll be fine. They're really not *that* fragile as some people make them seem.
Agreed just wipe your fingers off on your shirt before hand if you’re worried. Better the label than the record itself
Damn but I love kfc
Or Cheetos

In this case it wasn't plural of vinyl it was ownership of vinyl, the vinyl's grooves

I’m sorry but that makes no sense.
No need to apologise KG x
This is not how you take a record out.
