Abstract:
A method for assembling a notebook including the step of storing a plurality of covers having generally the same size and shape, each cover including a front panel, a rear panel, and a flexible portion positioned between the front and rear panels. The method also includes storing a plurality of differently-sized binding mechanisms and receiving an order for a particularly-sized notebook. The method includes, in response to the order, accessing one of the covers and one of the binding mechanisms corresponding to the ordered notebook. The method further includes the step of joining the accessed cover and the accessed binding mechanism such that the flexible portion of the cover is located immediately adjacent to the binding mechanism and allows the cover to conform to the particular size of the associated binding mechanism when the notebook is in a closed position.
