The present magnetically bound media with reattachable pages exemplarily comprise a magnetic binding, one or more reattachable pages, and one or more conductive metals attached to the pages and magnetically attracted to the magnetic binding. Thus, a user of the magnetically bound media may disengage one or more of the pages from the magnetic binding and reintegrate those pages into the magnetic binding in any order. This allows for customization of information presentation, sequence, and selection. The small size of the magnetic binding also affords a smaller minimum apparatus size and a quicker means with which to remove, rearrange, and reintegrate pages. Furthermore, the magnetic binding permits pages to be secured in a more professionally presentable manner without punched holes. In an exemplary embodiment, the magnetic binding is a cylindrical or a prismatic, rectangular neodymium or samarium alloy secured within the bound media by a magnet cover or clasp.
