Abstract

A multiple-layer label having a base sheet and a resealable top sheet in laminated arrangement to define a peripheral margin and an interior area. The top sheet is adhesively hinged to the base sheet in a first area of the peripheral margin and releasably adhered to the base sheet in substantially the remainder of the peripheral margin. A first informational sheet is adhered to the rear interior area of the top sheet. A second informational sheet is adhesively hinged to a portion of the front interior area of the base sheet. The label thus provides multiple sheet surfaces for informational text. The sheets of the label turn like the pages of a book, yet can be enclosed and substantially sealed by the top sheet to protect the informational sheets from environmental damage. The label may be permanently adhered to the product so that the user will not lose or separate the informational text from the product.
