If you burn a Data CDR/RW you can make it multi-session or close it.
Any multi-session CDR/DVDR can be added to until disc is full. When filling make sure disc settings are set to 'finalize'. It is the finalizing that closes a disc.

Just to add to Al's answer, each separate session on a CD will use about 15MB of the space on the CD just to create a new session, so lot's of sessions will mean less space for actual data. Also if you create a multisession disk only multisession compatible CD drives can read all the sessions, any non compatible drive will only ever see the first session (though these days you're only likely to find non compatible drives in either very old stuff, very cheap audio CD players or portable equipment)
The same does apply for DVDs but the loss of space for each session is only about 5MB.
