I made these two styles of calenders for next year. The narrow one is the template that can be found in the forums that is similar to the "Create a Calender found in the new SU catalogue. The book style calender can also be found in the templates. It is a 2007 template but can be changed to 2009 easily if you know Excel. I use this one to keep track of my work schedule.The covers were made from the liners found inside X Ray film.( I get this from work)
