Narrow Ruled Notepads

Taking notes, making shopping lists, and jotting down information for later transcription is easy when using narrow ruled notepads. Staples® carries notepads and exercise books from manufacturers such as Ampad®, Signa®, and TOPS® in a variety of quantities and sizes.

Take Advantage of the Spacing That Narrow Ruled Notepads Bring to the Table
To qualify as a narrow rule notepad, the spacing of the lines cannot exceed one-quarter of an inch. As a result, these types of notepads offer the most lines on a piece of paper, which lets buyers make good use of the sheet’s entire surface. Shoppers typically look for these memo pads if they have small handwriting or like to leave a line of space between each section of written information.

The Number of Pages and Fastening Techniques Allows for Added Versatility When Choosing Narrow Ruled Notepads
Sheet counts vary by manufacturer as well as size. Typically, sheet numbers range from 31 to 100 per pad. A wire-bound top makes it easy for someone taking notes to turn over the page and continue writing. When keeping the pages in place, flipping through the notepad is easy and lets people find valuable information quickly. For school use, side spirals work well since they let students refer to the day's lesson when preparing homework. Other notepads offer a fixed top setup with micro perforations for sheet removal. These products appeal to buyers who routinely tear out used pages for filing or passing on to others. Some notepads come with three-hole drilled pages that let users transfer sheets from pad to folder without the need for finding a three-hole punch.

Do Narrow Ruled Notepads Come in Different Colors?
Although white is a standard color that contrasts well with pencil and pen marks, shoppers might also opt for products with pink, blue, green, or yellow pages. Doing so offers the advantage of color-coordinating note taking and list making. In an office environment, the use of multi-colored narrow rule notepads makes it possible to keep projects separate and know at a glance which information pertains to the right file.

How Many Narrow Ruled Notepads Come in a Package?
Some notepads come in packs of 12, which is ideal when there are many workers with access to the office's supply cabinet. Others come in packs of six or three, which is a good option for smaller offices or when there are still only partially used packages from the last order left over. It is also possible to buy notepads individually, which makes the most sense when you are buying for yourself and know exactly the size and paper color you prefer. Individual notepads are the perfect addition to any school supplies list or office supplies order.

What Sheet Dimensions Do Narrow Ruled Notepads Offer?
A 3.5 x 5.5 inch notepad is a good item to keep near a phone for taking notes during a conversation. Conversely, an 8.5 x 11 inch notepad is an asset during a meeting when marking down questions, taking minutes, or writing reminders for future actions. Other sizes to choose from include 4 x 6 inches and 5 x 8 inches.
