Home Book Binding Without Special Equipment
From Large Family Mothering:
It's just wonderful the opportunities we have to read old books and other digitized manuscripts for free. But I am not alone in needing to read these nifty tomes on paper—electronic devices just don't seem "right" to me.

It's just that the cost of all that printing and binding, not to mention all the "zipping", was taking its toll on me.
So I went on an odyssey, surfing the Net for better alternatives. I am so pleased and excited with what I have found that I have to share it with you all!
