One thing I did with my Ball Blue book when I replaced it this year is to take it to Staples for them to cut off the binding and 3 hole punch the whole thing. Then I put it into a very large three ring binder. When I find canning recipes on the Internet, I print them out and insert them in between Blue book pages to the category that they would fit into! When I’m going to can something, I just pull out the binder and all of the recipes are in one place!!
