subject: Eight Great Three-ring Binder Accessories [print this page] Three-ring binders are easy to use, especially when you have the right accessories. From pre-punched paper to CD holders, there are a number of great products that can make using three-ring binders more productive and enjoyable. Here are eight of them. Check them out...
1.) Pre-punched paper. Paper that's already punched can save you a lot of time because you won't be messing around with a hole punch. This is especially helpful if you have lengthy documents that need to go into binders.
2.) Self-adhesive cover pockets. The supplies are handy if you want a place to store various items on the exterior or interior of your books. These pockets are designed for a number of different items including CD's, business cards, floppy disks, photographs, notes, and so on.
3.) Spine inserts. Many of today's binders have a clear overlay so you can insert your own customized covers. The overlay often extends to the spine so you can customize that as well and spine inserts make it easy. These supplies are the perfect size for your books and you can run them through your printer so they'll look professional.
4.) Self-adhesive reinforcements. If you've ever had to deal with torn-out pages, you know what a lifesaver reinforcements can be. These little sticky rings can repair your paper so it can be put back in your binder. That way you won't have to print out or copy a whole new page.
5.) CD holders. In the 21st century, documentation is found on more than just paper thanks to the popularity of CD's and DVD's. If these two media types often accompany your paper documents, you can get holders so you can place them in your binders. Some of these holders are vinyl ones, but you can also purchase jewel cases that are hole-punched as well.
6.) Page protectors. If you have a document that you want to protect, page protectors are what you need. These plastic sleeves will house your item, but they have a strip on the side that's hole-punched so you can put it in your book along with your other documents. Also, sheet protectors come in clear plastic as well as eye-catching translucent colors such as blue, pink, and yellow.
7.) A portable three-hole punch. You never know when you may need to punch some paper, so a portable three-hole punch is a great item to have around. There are even some that can go right in your book so it's always there when you need it.
8.) Index tabs. Unless you're only putting one document into a binder, you're going to need index tabs. These tabs will organize your papers by subject, etc. so you'll be able to find what you need when you need it.
As you can see, there are a lot of great binder supplies available and they can all make your workday more productive. They'll also help you stay organized and protect your documents. Get some of these great accessories now so you can see what they can do for you.
