Spiral notebooks are highly portable office tools, offering users flexibility when taking notes, logging mileage and completing homework assignments. Spiral binding allows for smooth page-turning action, making them a popular choice for students, teachers and project managers.

In 1924, the spiral notebook was said to have made its debut. Edward Podosek, an English inventor with many patents, is often credited for the invention.

Edward Podosek The first legal pads were created by Thomas W. Holley in 1888; he used leftover scraps from the paper mill where he worked. It is thought that the spiral notebook debuted around 1924; an English inventor named Edward Podosek is often credited for the innovation.

Plastic spiral binding is a three-step process: punch, insert, crimp. First, a punch creates holes along the edge of the document. Second, a coil inserter spins the coils through the holes.

A notebook (also known as a notepad, writing pad, drawing pad, or legal pad) is a book or stack of paper pages that are often ruled and used for purposes such as note-taking, journaling or other writing, drawing, or scrapbooking.

You might choose a spiral notebook vs. bound notebook if you need or want to be able to lay the book flat on one single page. The spiral spine allows the book to be opened and flipped to any page, and the book is guaranteed to stay flat compared to thicker bound notebooks, which can struggle to lay flat.

The logarithmic, or equiangular, spiral was discovered by the French scientist René Descartes in 1638. In 1692 the Swiss mathematician Jakob Bernoulli named it spira mirabilis (“miracle spiral”) for its mathematical properties; it is carved on his tomb.

We call them spiral-bound, others call them wirebound. The common link though is that the notebook is bound with a spiral coil, usually made of wire but I guess it could be made of plastic or any material strong enough to cope.

One of the primary benefits of a spiral-bound book is that the pages can be opened a full 360 degrees (cover to cover). This allows an open book to fold back upon itself and yet still remain flat, so it stays open for easy reference and yet takes up minimal room on a desk or table.
