A system for securing a plurality of papers, comprising:
- a spine binder shaft having a posterior side and a bendable center axis;
- a first plurality of loop fasteners connected to the posterior side of the spine binder shaft and having a first end configured as a male connector;
- a second plurality of loop fasteners connected to the posterior side of the spine binder shaft and having a first end configured as a female connector and configured to receive and engage the male connector of the first plurality of loop fasteners to form a cooperating pair of loop fasteners that close to bind the plurality of papers, wherein when closed, the spine binder shaft, first plurality of loop fasteners, and second plurality of loop fasteners form a continuous unit and when the first and second plurality of loop fasteners are closed, a bound plurality of papers, can rotate substantially 360 degrees to fold back upon itself and lie flat when the bound plurality of papers are open, wherein the male connector further comprises a shank having at least two compressible tabs at an end of a rimmed head plug whereby the shank tabs can compress for insertion into the female connector and decompress once inserted into the female connector to latch and secure;
- and
- a tamper-evident security feature configured to cooperate with the spine binder shaft, wherein upon closing the tamper-evident security feature prevents removal and insertion of a page without evidence of tampering.
