I wouldn't recommend the plastic ring-type thing I described. Yes, you can
bend the book backward, but the edge of the page that's inside the rings
tends to get bent, gumming up the whole thing. The only reason I've got a
pile of printed-out books like this is because I haven't found a place
here that does spiral bindings, so the only alternative I have is the
glued strip type of binding, which works even less well because pages
drop out after a while.
