Abstract: A notebook binder with an integral book band for holding sheets of paper, loose books or other objects affixed to the interior and exterior faces of a cover of the notebook binder. The objects are held against the cover of the notebook binder by the use of an adjustable strap which encircles the objects with two loops that are substantially perpendicular to one another. The strap passes through a strap slot in a cover of the binder. The apparatus has the multiple, simultaneous, advantages of consolidating a group of papers, books or other objects onto the face of a binder cover with a single strap, maintaining the strap attached to the binder in a prealigned, readily usable, perpendicular loop configuration and discouraging unintended uses of the strap.
