Voice Compact Canvas Bookbag

Price: $25.00

Stock: Ample

Description: These are heavy duty canvas bags with space for everything a student needs, yet compact enough to be easily carried and stored! The main compartment comfortably fits standard AU course manuals with a couple of inches to spare all around, and can hold several textbooks as well. We packed in two large hardcover texts, 3 smaller softcovers, an AU course manual and a study guide. There should be enough space for all but the very largest AU course! Standard sized binders fit snugly as well. The canvas is extra heavy and the stitching is strong so it should hold up to a beating! The bag could also fit a 15" laptop, could be used as an over-nighter, and and one member found it made a great smaller sized diaper bag. Inside the flap there is a clip, pockets for pens, books, calculators and more! This bag should be compact enough to fit in most lockers. We're offering these at close to our cost as they would usually sell for $50 or so.

Features:

  • Main compartment for texts and course manuals
  • Two carry straps - a small one to carry in one hand like a briefcase, and a longer, removeable shoulder strap that adjusts long enough to go around the neck on the other shoulder, courier style (for carrying those really heavy books!)
  • Full flap closure with plastic clasps to keep everything secure
  • Outer flat pocket in flap for thin booklets, notpads
  • Plastic clip inside to hold keys, thumb drives, etc.
  • Two large inner pockets for smaller books, cell phone, sunglasses, etc.
  • Four small inner pockets for calculators, small notepads, credit cards, etc.
  • Four narrow slots for pencils and slim pens
  • Piping on seams for strength
  • Size: 330 x 304 x 101mm (13" x 12" x 4")

Eco Info: This is heavy 15oz 100% cotton canvas with metal zippers and plastic clips and buckles.




Mini Hardcover Stickybook

Price: $6.00

Stock: Ample

Description: These little hardcover books hold a variety of paper sticky notes and flags for all of your study needs. The right side holds a thick pad of large yellow notes (sticky along the left edge), while the left holds a booklet of smaller notes, and five colours of flags (page marker strips) that can be used as bookmarks, or to hold small notes. When doing a research paper, try using a different coloured note to flag material in books and articles on each of your paper's sub-topics (ie, orange for supporting evidence, pink for counter arguments, green for implications, etc.). The books are about half the size of a regular pocket book, so they will slip into a purse or larger pencil case easily (or into any of the interior pockets of our book bag! They look just like a tiny hardcover text book.

Features:

  • Book is hardcover with laminated paper coated covers over cardboard.
  • Dimensions: 1.75 cm thick, 10.5 cm x 7.5 cm
  • Large notes are 7.5 cm" x 10 cm -- 100 notes
  • Smaller notes are 5" x 7.5", 25 notes
  • Flags are 1 cm x 4.25 cm, 25 of each colour

Eco Info: The book is constructed of paper and cardboard, while all notes are paper.
