It's happened to my French dictionary and it becomes very annonying when I'm searching for a French word to translate into English. The whole front cover is creased and it bends almost perpendicularly when I'm going to look for a word on the French side of things. Does anyone know how to repair a book damaged like this? I've searched for nearly 2 hours on the internet and I have found nothing.

Thanks a million.

You could try covering the book with clear adhesive contact. but not that crappy thin Duraseal stuff that refuses to lie smooth resulting in those horrible bubbles; get the thicker decorator's contact, I got some from Big W and I think it's called 'nylex' or something. this has worked for all my sad-looking paperbacks.

Cut some cardboard to shape and glue it to the inside of your cover, then cover the whole book with that clear stuff.

Where can I find this Selly's Crease Release? It is not listed on the Officeworks website.
