More than one of you has asked what the deal is with spiral binding. So, here's the skinny.
I hate it when books don't lay flat. Or workbooks either. So I take them to the office supply store, or a place like Kinkos, and have it spiral bound. As long as it's paperback (don't know if they can do hardback), they cut off the binding and add a spiral.
Super easy and not too spendy. I will say that I've found Staples to be cheaper than Kinkos. That's it!
I do that with my quilting books so they will lay flat while I work on a project :) it is great that way!

Have you had any issues with certain thicknesses, or are they able to do thicker things? I have a cookbook that I would love to do that with....

I do this with all of my music books... how can they expect a pianist to play from music that doesn't lay flat, really? Glad to hear Staples is cheaper - we're about to get one here! :D

What is "not too spendy"? I have always wondered what that costs. I knew one person who used to do that with our bible study workbooks. I have always wanted to do it - and maybe now I will.
