Book Covering Supplies Australia

Adhesive, Non-Adhesive & Dust Jacket Protection for Schools & Libraries

Protect textbooks, readers, workbooks and library books with high-quality book covering supplies designed for Australian schools, libraries and homes. VIPA Library & Office Supplies specialises in book covering rolls, non-adhesive book cover plastic and dust jacket sleeving that help extend the life of every book in circulation.

Covering books reduces wear from everyday handling, keeping books in circulation for longer and cutting replacement costs. Browse our range of premium book covering, to find the right solution for your collection.

Adhesive Book Covering – Vipaseal Gloss & Satin

Our Vipaseal adhesive book covering rolls deliver a clear, professional finish that protects books from moisture, scuffing and daily wear. The delayed bond adhesive lets you reposition the film during application, making it easier to avoid air bubbles and wrinkles – ideal when covering multiple books at once.

Perfect for: ·

  • School exercise books, textbooks and workbooks
  • Library books, readers and reference books
  • Diaries, manuals and long-life classroom resources

Choose Your Finish

Vipaseal Gloss: a crystal-clear, polished finish that keeps book covers highly visible – a long-standing favourite for schools and libraries.

Vipaseal Satin: a low-glare, softly textured surface preferred where reduced reflection is helpful, including for students with sensory sensitivities.

Both finishes feature the same delayed bond technology for smooth, long-lasting results.

Non-Adhesive Book Cover Plastic

Made from heavy-duty 100 micron (0.1mm) clear PVC, our non-adhesive book covering rolls provide durable protection without any adhesive touching the book surface – perfect when you need removable or reusable covering.

Commonly used for:

  • School textbooks and exercise books
  • Library books needing removable covers
  • Hardcover and softcover books, including those with dust jackets
  • Frequently used reference materials

Sizing tip: choose a roll approximately 100mm taller than your tallest book to allow enough material for folding over edges.

Dust Jacket Sleeving for Hardcover Books

Our clear 100 micron PVC dust jacket sleeving protects hardcover books while preserving the original jacket design. The transparent front paired with a paper backing creates a durable protective layer that helps prevent tearing, creasing and edge wear – keeping library and collection books in top condition.

Quick sizing guide:

  • 250mm roll – suits books approximately 250mm high
  • 300mm roll – suits books approximately 300mm high

Each metre typically covers around two standard hardcover books.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1. What size book covers do I need for school?
Most Australian exercise books fit standard A4 book covers, while scrapbooks need A3 and readers usually fit A5. If your titles fall outside these sizes, a book cover roll lets you cut a custom fit for any book.
Q2. Are your book covers better than Officeworks book covers?
Many customers switch from Officeworks book covers to VIPA because our film is thicker, the adhesive is stronger and our pricing on bulk school book covers is sharper — ideal for whole-class or library-wide covering.
Q3. Do you sell plastic book covers for children's books?
Yes. Our children’s book covers and clear plastic book covers are perfect for picture books, library readers and early-learning titles, keeping artwork visible while protecting corners and spines.
Q4. Can I buy book covers online in Australia with fast delivery?
Absolutely. We ship book covers online in Australia daily, with bulk options on book covers for school, rolls and pre-cut sleeves dispatched from our local warehouse.
Q5. Are sustainable book covers available?
While book covering materials are designed primarily for durability and protection, using book covering rolls, non-adhesive book covering and dust jacket sleeving can help extend the life of books. Keeping books in use for longer reduces the need for replacement, supporting a more sustainable approach overall.
