Subject field(s)
  • Forwarding, Folding, and Binding (Printing)
DEF

A unit of two or more leaves placed at the beginning and end of a book, half of which is pasted to the cover (known as the board sheet, paste-down, or board paper) and half of which forms a flyleaf.

OBS

The board sheet hides the raw edges of the cover material where it is turned over the edge of the board and forms a hinge between the book and the cover. The flyleaves protect the first and last printed pages of the book.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Façonnage, pliage et reliure (Imprimerie)
DEF

Double feuillet ajouté au début et à la fin d'un ouvrage broché ou relié afin de protéger les premières et les dernières pages du texte.

OBS

La première moitié des pages de garde est constituée de pages collées sur la surface du contreplat (face intérieure du carton de couverture) - d'où le nom «gardes collées» - tandis que la seconde moitié comporte des «gardes volantes» qui protègent le premier feuillet du premier cahier de l'ouvrage et le dernier feuillet du dernier cahier de l'ouvrage.
