Five lines, repeated: that is what a stave is, and everything written for it depends on the distance between one line and the next holding steady. At 2.47 millimetres, seventy lines fit the page before the margin closes it off, gathered five at a time into the staves themselves.
One hundred ten pages carry that ruling, the larger part of the book, behind a single divider. A shorter run of plain lined pages follows for lyrics, a fingering note, or anything else that does not sit on a stave.
The staves do not compose anything. They wait, evenly spaced, for whatever gets put on them, and a page left blank at the end of the week is exactly as ruled as one that is full.
What is inside
- Staves
- 110pp
- Five-line staves at 2.47 mm, spaced the same from the first page to the last.
- Reference

- Conversion tables computed from definitions, and the pen test leaf.
In every book
The same six pages open every book: your details, who to call, the signs to point at when you have no shared language, and the map. They sit at the front because the moment you need them is not the moment to be flicking through.
- This book belongs to
- One page for your name and number, so a book that goes missing can come back.
- My details
- Blood group, allergies, who to call. Written once, carried everywhere.
- Emergency numbers
- Forty countries, taken from Wikidata property P2852 (CC0), agreed across two sources, every row carrying its QID. Numbers change and a book does not — verify locally on arrival.
- Point at this
- A pictogram grid captioned in English above and Indonesian below, for when there is no shared language.
- World map
- Natural Earth 110m, public domain, equirectangular, with UTC hour meridians computed from the projection rather than from a timezone database. For orientation and for pointing at, not a navigation chart.
- Conversion tables
- Computed from definitions — 25.4 mm to the inch — and not copied from anywhere, so every row can be checked by anyone holding the book.
- Pen test leaf
- The last page, printed for it on purpose. Every notebook is used this way; printing it deliberately is cheaper than losing the last leaf to it by accident.
