What is a "gathering"?
A gathering is a set of folded sheets of paper that are sewn or bound together to form a section of a book. Each gathering typically contains multiple leaves, or individual sheets, and is a fundamental component in the bookbinding process. Multiple gatherings are combined to make up the entire book. This method of grouping pages helps organize and structure the book, ensuring that it opens and reads properly.
