Pages in a book A page is one side of a leaf (a sheet or half-sheet) of paper, parchment or other material (or electronic media) in a book, magazine, newspaper, or other collection of sheets, on which text or illustrations can be printed, written or drawn, to create documents. It can be used as a measure of communicating general quantity of information and is used in various compound words and idiomatic expressions. In library science, the number of pages in a book forms part of its physical description.
