Yearly Planners & Personal Organizers

Whether at home or in the office, staying organized is a necessity. Yearly Planners come in several styles and sizes to suit a wide range of users. They make it easy to record special dates and upcoming events, as well as provide an overview of the upcoming month or year regarding productivity. Staples® carries many forms of office supplies including planners from companies such as Mercury, Day Runner®, and House of Doolittle®.

Choose From Many Yearly Planner Configurations
Yearly Planners come in a variety of styles. Some have a weekly format that provides daily slots for recording important events and meetings while others have a monthly calendar with empty spaces for notes. Many combine both weekly and monthly pages to create a versatile planning tool for business or home use. If you're consistently attending meetings and interviews, choose a format that has hourly time slots.

Select the Yearly Planner Style That Works Best for You
Daily planners come with either flexible or hard covers. Those with plastic or poly covers work well for those who travel and need flexibility while hard, and leather covers come with a professional appearance that's suitable for the office. Most have a spiral binding that makes it easy to turn pages to glance at past or future events. Pockets make storing business cards and presentation materials easy and pen slots make sure you have a space for writing utensils. Some yearly Moleskine planners come with folio pads so you can jot down notes while on the go, or during a meeting to reference at a later date.

Can You Use Yearly Planners for Academic Use?
Yes. Some yearly 2017 planners come with a spacious layout with blank or lined spaces where you can record assignments, projects, and classes. Choose one that starts in July or August instead of January to cover the entire academic year instead of the calendar year. Academic planners come with a space in the front or back to record your schedule and other important information such as email addresses of a professor or other students in the class.

What Sizes Do Yearly Planners Come in?
Yearly and monthly planners come in a variety of sizes from small units that measure 5.5 x 8.5 inches to oversize folios that measure 14" x 18" and work well for those on the go. The most common size is 8.5 x 11 inches, which fits easily in a desk drawer or comfortably on a desktop without getting in the way. Pocket planners are convenient enough to take anywhere and fit in a purse, school bag or briefcase.

What Additional Features Do Yearly Planners Come With?
While many planners come with additional features, they depend on the style you choose. Some have a note section where you can outline plans and goals for the current week or month, while others have a dedicated note section where you can write down important memos to keep in mind. World maps provide a list of time zones for business reference and a holiday list makes it easy to determine bank and federal closures. Many planners come with tabs to separate the months for tracking purposes.
