A hand held device for manually holding a multi-page document with a U-shaped element having a ring-shaped extension at one end of an elongated leg and a shorter leg parallelly spaced therefrom by a right angle extension at the opposite end of the elongated leg whereby the shorter leg is inserted between the pages along the inner side of the multi-page document's binding and the longer leg is positioned along the outer side of the multi-page document's binding such that a person can support the multi-page document with one hand by inserting, in part, a preselected finger of one hand through the ring-shaped extension.

A media binder has an inner assembly and a case assembly, The inner assembly includes inside boards pre-attached to a binding mechanism. Adhesive is placed on outward surfaces of the inside boards. The case assembly includes a cover sheet with at least one marginal edge attached to surface boards and at least one loose edge. To customize cover, a printed cover is inserted in-between the cover sheet and the surface board through an opening formed by the loose edge. The case assembly is then laminated. The laminated case assembly is combined with the inner assembly using the adhesive on the inside boards. A one-piece media binder has cover sheets wrapping around surface boards forming pockets. The surface boards are partially attached to paste downs. To customize cover, printed covers are inserted into the pockets, and the paste downs are then attached to the surface boards to seal loose edges.
