Magnetically bound medium with reattachable pages
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.

TAB BOOKLET AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME
A booklet, in the form of a tab booklet, includes a cover and a reading passage page that has a first portion in which first content is contained and a side tab that extends outwardly along a first side edge. The reading passage page includes a fold line that defines a top portion and a bottom portion of the reading passage page. The booklet includes a plurality of tabbed pages located subsequent to the reading passage page. Each tabbed page includes a tab formed along a top edge of the tabbed page, wherein the tabs of the tabbed pages are laterally offset from one another when the booklet is constructed. The fold line is located such that when the top portion is folded along the fold line and is superimposed over the bottom portion, the tabs are visible and extend above the folded reading passage page. The booklet is fastened along a left side edge of the cover and the left side edges of the tabbed pages and along a left side edge of the tab portion.
