Spiral Notebooks in Notebooks & Pads(1000+)

What is the difference between college- and wide-ruled notebooks?

Most spiral notebooks come with pages that feature either college- or wide-ruled lines, though some may come with blank pages with no lines at all. Wide-ruled notebooks have bigger spaces between the lines. College-ruled notebooks have narrower spaces. Wide-ruled notebooks are typically recommended for younger children. College-ruled spiral notebooks are more suitable for middle schoolers, high schoolers, and college students.

What are some common sizes that spiral notebooks come in?

The standard spiral notebook is typically 10.5 inches long and 8 inches wide. However, spiral notebooks may come in a variety of sizes. Smaller sizes, like 5.5 by 3.5 inches, 7 by 5 inches, and 8 by 6 inches might be ideal for making lists or taking quick notes. Larger sizes, like the standard 10.5 by 8 inches and 11 by 9 inches, are more suitable for schoolwork.

What else should I look for when choosing a spiral notebook?

When choosing a spiral notebook, you'll want to determine if you need wide-ruled, college-ruled, or blank white paper. You'll also need to decide what size notebook you want— most range from 5.5 by 3.5 inches up to 11 by 9 inches. Something else to consider is how many subjects you want to use the notebook for. Some are for singular subjects, while others offer dividers so that you can use them for up to five or six subjects and stay organized at the same time. Of course, color and cover design are also something to consider based on your own personal preferences.
