In some embodiments, there is a movable, protective, transparent cover located atop the whiteboard, and this cover is moveable with movement means selected from the group consisting of a hinge arrangement, a flap arrangement and a slide arrangement. The connecting mechanism may be at least one fastener adapted to temporarily hold the front member and the back member together or it may be a spine that is permanently connected to the front member and the back member. In an alternative embodiment, the whiteboard itself is removable and there may be a pocket, slot or other insert, or an attachment means. Such as a latch, a screw, hook and loop (Velcro), or other temporary holding means for temporarily securing the whiteboard to the binder.
