Compagination

/kəmˌpædʒɪˈneɪʃən/ noun

Definition

The process of binding pages or gathering sections together to form a complete book or document.

Etymology

From Medieval Latin compaginatio, the noun form of compaginare. The term emerged during the manuscript era to describe the technical process of assembling written pages into codex form (the modern book shape).

Kelly Says

The word compagination shows how technical jargon from medieval monasteries became specialized vocabulary—monks perfected this skill centuries before printing was invented, and the terminology stuck around in bookmaking long after.
