A bound dated diary or a bound undated diary adapted to take notes is provided, which includes a passive RFID component, fixed directly or indirectly to the cover, which is configured to be interrogated by a NFC reading device, communicating to it a unique code that uniquely identifies the passive RFID component. A method of manufacturing a paper support with the passive RFID component hidden from view is also disclosed. The paper support can interact with a smartphone, or more generally with any device that can surf the net equipped with a NFC reading device, through a dedicated computer program that allows to implement a method of connecting to a web page uniquely associated with the paper support.

An olfactory sensory book that is operable to provide an olfactory stimulation that correlates to portions of the content of the book. The invention includes at least one perimeter panel wherein the perimeter panel has formed therein a plurality of scent compartments. The scent compartments have an opening wherein the opening is sealably secured with a removable cap member. The scent compartments include an interior volume wherein disposed within the interior volume is an absorbent material. The absorbent material is operable to be saturated with a volatile compound. Removal of the cap member during use of the book of the invention provides release of the fragrance of the volatile compound saturated on the absorbent material. The scent compartment is further configured with a slot and a screen member wherein the slot facilitates release of the fragrance. A rear access panel provides access to the interior volume of the scent compartment.

An electronic book using electromagnetic energy to detect page numbers includes a book and a base, the book includes a plurality of book pages, each of the book pages is respectively provided with an electromagnetic energy changing member, and the base is provided with at least one antenna coil and at least one control circuit. The electromagnetic energy changing member of each of the book pages is correspondingly disposed adjacent to a position of the antenna coil, and a magnetic flux generated by the antenna coil is transmitted to the electromagnetic energy changing members. The electromagnetic energy changing members generate magnetic variable fluxes to be received by the antenna coil for generating a page number prompt output command by conversion to control generation of a prompt function of the book page correspondingly disposed adjacent to the position of the antenna coil.

A book has a front cover having a first edge which is unconnected, and an opposing second edge which is connected to a spine. A back cover has a first edge which is connected to the spine and an opposing second edge which is connected to flexible joint or fold-line. The book has a third cover having a first edge which is connected to the flexible joint, that couples the third cover to the back cover, and an opposing second edge which is connected to binding. The front cover is configured to fold back about the spine to retain the third cover proximal the outer edge of the third cover to retain the book in a propped-up position for reading. A page holder slides along the left and right sides of the third cover and has an opening that allows a page to be pushed therethrough.
