The spine usually faces outward when a book is placed on a shelf. Also known as the back. tight : Used to mean that the binding of a book has not been overly loosened by frequent use. Ex-library : A former library book, generally containing library acquisition and ownership stamped markings, and other typical indications of the library's use. remainder : Book(s) which are sold at a very deep discount to alleviate publisher overstock. Often, though not always, they have a remainder mark. 4to : Or quarto. A term used generally to describe the approximate size of a book, a book that is about 10" to 12" tall and roughly squarish in shape. The term is based on the size of paper traditionally used by book printers which has been folded and cut into 16 pages. Bumps : Indicates that the affected part of the book has been impacted in such a way so as to cause a flattening, indention, or light bending.
