Hot glue?
Fabric glue?
Elmer's glue stick?
Super glue?
Gorilla glue?

ETA: How do I repair this book so that it can be returned? I rented this book and I don't want to have to pay $200+ to replace it.

Go to local library and find the ugliest single girl working there. Start flirting with her and work it into the conversation that you need a book fixed and would be willing to do anything. Get book fixed. Next step is up to you.

No matter what you do, it'll never be perfect, and the repair won't last very long.

i wouldn't even try it for a textbook/reference.  cut the spine, and take it to a printing shop to have it drilled and spiral bound.


edit: derp.  i can't reading of returnings.

Gorilla glue...apply sparingly but thoroughly and rig up something to clamp/weight/hold parts together til glue dries.

A light glue in thin rows down the sides and middle of the spine. Close tight and hold it down overnight. Make sure and put some pressure on the spine also.

As the video above indicates, you probably need binder tape for something that fucked up.  If any pages are also loose after you fix the binding, I recommend the following:

Books by Hand pH Neutral PVA Adhesive, 8oz

I used that adhesive on a pretty old hardcover version of Lucifer's Hammer that a section of pages fell out of this summer.  Good as new.

Mesh for strength and  glue, cover with typewriter paper that has cotton-fibre and place that over the mesh while the glue is still wet.

Try cock snot and packing tape, and try to take better care of the shit that taxpayers ultimately pay for.


Really!

What exactly was your intent then?  He broke a book that was intended to be loaned out and taken home.  It's wasn't the constitution, calm down man.

Yeah uhh... Sorry I kicked it off my bed once when I was rolling around with my girlfriend. I also like to chunk my backpack into my passenger seat when I get in my vehicle.

I've had quite a few books before this one, and none have been in this bad of shape.

I really think the previous user created a weak point and the fall from my bed exploited that week point...

use gobs of glue.  If it doesn't fix it big deal, it's a book.  A job not worth doing isn't worth doing right
