When you need to organize materials quickly
and efficiently, index tabs are the way to go. Preprinted dividers with
a coordinating table of contents page provide fast results with a
professional look and allow you to customize your contents without
changing the tabs. Cardinal offers a full line of tabs and other
accessories for use with three ring binders. Here is a sampling of
their products.
Indexes are easily made with preprinted tabs and a matching
table of contents. With free templates available online, you can print
your section titles directly onto the table of contents using a laser
or inkjet printer or copier. The tabs line up to each section of the
intro sheet for easy referencing. Here are a few popular options.
The
Traditional One Step Index System consists of white dividers with a
Mylar reinforced binding edge and tab. The tabs are either multicolored
or white and have black printing. You can choose from 1-5, 1-8, 1-10,
1-12, 1-31, A-Z, or Jan-Dec.
One Step More
also features white sheets with black imprinted on rainbow colored
Mylar tabs. The reinforced binding edge is three hole punched for use
in a three ring binder. The difference is in the table of contents
page; it folds out to be visible even when you're looking in the middle
or back of your document. These are available numbered one through 5,
8, 10, 12, or 15.
With the Quick Step
Index system, you get the Traditional System in bulk, ready to collate.
Extra table of contents sheets are included for quick changes. Choose
between white or multicolored tabs and numbers through five, eight, or
ten.
Dividers:
Cardinal Poly Dividers offer a
fun way to store loose documents within a three ring binder. These
clear or multicolored tabs are available with two, one, or zero
pockets. The same dividers come without tabs for a streamlined way to
hold loose pages.
Multicolored Expanding
Pocket Dividers provide you with either five or eight tabs to customize
your notebook. The expanding pocket can accommodate up to 100 pages!
The scratch resistant poly material is transfer safe, so your photos
and printed sheets won't transfer ink to the divider.
Simple
Ring Binder Pocket Dividers are white, untabbed dividers with a pocket
on each side. Each pocket holds 25 sheets, making them especially handy
to hold handouts in a presentation binder.
Clear
Zipper Binder Pockets allow you to store smaller items such as pens or
sticky notepads right in your binder. The zipper easily slides open and
closed for quick access.
Cardinal's line of HOLDit accessories are little extras that can
really personalize your work. These are just a couple of the most
popular ones.
Top Loading Business Card Holders
have a self-adhesive backing and can stick anywhere. They are a great
way to personalize your proposal or presentation. Simply stick one on
the inside of your report and slide in your business card.
Binder
Insert Strips allow you to include things in a three ring notebook
without punching holes. The holes on the side of the strip fit in a
selection of ring binder styles. Peel off the adhesive backing and
press your page down. These work on drawings, brochures, magazines,
documents, and more.
Overall, Cardinal has a great selection of index tabs and
accessories. Next time you're organizing a large document with index
tabs, check out Cardinal to see if they have a product that's right for
you!
