@AtticRattata asks
my binder shares a backpack with my laptop and charger. Is the hard cover enough?
Jeff answers
I'd avoid pressure from heavy or pointed items and use a compartment that supports the binder without bending it. Check how the bag sits when you put it down. A hard cover helps, but it doesn't make the contents immune to everything else you pack around it.
