The album pages should be acid-free, PVC-free (polyvinyl chloride-free) and photo-safe. There are several types of albums.
The first one is the binder-type album which is a three-ring binder similar to a generic three-ring school binder, this type of album is expandable, so it will be easier to add more scrapbook pages as they are created. It is also convenient because pages can be moved without damaging the entire album or scrapbook page.
The second type is the post-bound album. A post-bound album has sheet protectors which you can take apart because they are bound by metal tubes.
The third type is the strap-hinge album. This type is also expandable but it only goes to certain extent. The album has plastic pockets to protect the pages, and is bound by wire loops.
