Are they really all that bad for photos? I know that when the glue gets sticky with age the photos sometimes can't be gotten out, but I would change albums before that happens.
Here is what I'm going to do with it:
I have recently found alot of old photos of my grand parents, great grand parents and family photos. I want to make pages for each person and stick all their photos on one page. I can't buy one off the internet and don't want a scrapbook.
Should I use the stick down albums?

I used an all in one printer to make identical copies. The original photos won't be in there.

You really need to store the originals in archival quality sleeves or pages. The same applies to the prints you've made. Why do all that work and then risk having them messed up?
Check these sites. They should list retailers where you can buy their products locally.

archival.com
archivalsupplies.com
printfile.com
You can also check at your local professional camera store.

Don't use those... they really do ruin photos and it doesn't take a very long time either. They're not photo-safe and I don't even know why they're still being made.
There are lots of better affordable alternatives.
