Wide Ruled Notebooks
Trending now
Wide ruled notebooks and pads suit a variety of purposes and use around the home, in school, and in the office. They're ideal for jotting down notes, training in the workplace or for use as a journal, and come in many sizes and colors. Staples carries many brands of notebooks as a part of our office supplies inventory including TOPS, Cambridge and Ampad.
Spiral-Bound Notebooks
Spiral and subject notebooks have a metal ring that keeps all of the pages tightly bound, but still let you easily remove individual sheets. You can rip them out at the seam, or choose units with perforated edges for a neater tear. Single-subject notebooks have up to 80 sheets, depending on the brand. You'll also find three and five-subject notebooks that contain over 100 pages. These units have dividers between the sections, so you can distinguish between different classes or tasks. They come with thick covers for durability, though some units have flexible front poly covers. Standard 8 x 10.5-inch books are ideal for use in school or at the office, while smaller sizes increase portability, letting you record notes or information while on the go.
Composition Notebooks
Composition notebooks have a sewn binding down the center that keeps pages secure, preventing them from falling out. They're widely used in school settings due to their durability and for journalistic tasks. They contain up to 120 sheets and come in standard 8.5 x 7 inch or 9.75 x 7.5-inch sizes. Most brands have a side margin, but others have a full-page design with no margin for those who need more writing space. If you're looking for a portable solution, select a mini notebook that easily fits in your purse, briefcase or pocket.
Legal and Steno Pads
Legal pads come in various colors including blue, pink, white and yellow, so you can choose the one that appeals most to you. They have a glued binding at the top, and typically have a perforated edge just below it for easy sheet removal. Like all notebooks, they come in various sizes ranging from 5 x 8-inch units that make an excellent solution for smaller desktops to 8.5 x 14-inch legal-sized pads for adding notes to files or drafting letters.
Steno pads and college-ruled notebooks are widely used in the office to keep track of notes for training purposes. They also work well for to-do lists, helping to keep employees organized. They have a spiral binding at the top and come in varying sizes that range from units that fit in shirt pockets, an excellent solution for reporters who gather notes on the fly, to the standard-size pad that measures 6 x 9 inches.
Sustainable Materials
In addition to standard paper, many wide ruled notebooks have eco-friendly features. Recyclable paper and cardboard components help to eliminate the amount of waste while promoting sustainability. Some products contain 100 percent recycled or biodegradable materials for the eco-conscious consumer.
