Storage Of JAA Pilot License

Hello,

My JAA f/ATPL arrived and it is a piece of paper that I think you need to cut up. (I'm from America and used to the FAA license) During my training I think I saw someone with a small book that contained their license. Do you know where I can find one online for purchase?
