they are called screw posts.
If you want just a few of them go to a craft store and buy scrap book extention posts.
If you want 100, go to www.screwpost.com

I got mine at Lowes. They call them binding posts. I tried Home Depot but nobody there knew what I was looking for.

"Binder Posts" are sometimes available from Office Supply Stores.
Old fashioned way of binding accounting reports!
