If you are doing History Hons, Pol Sci, or English at DU, you know the struggle. The semester starts, and the professor drops a "Reading List" that is basically 3 entire books.

The Local Print Queue Trap

We all do it. We trek to crowded photocopy lanes, stand in that narrow queue, sweat for 45 minutes, and scramble to find our specific chapter.

Spiral Binding is Mandatory! reading a 600-page bundle without spiral binding is a workout for your thumbs. We create thick, durable spirals that lay flat on your desk.
