Hello! I was looking through grader's notes on a book and one note listed was "medium spine split." I was wondering what constitutes a "medium" spine split. I'd also be curious what qualifies as a "small" or "large" spine split. I was actually rather surprised that an objective measurement wasn't provided, so thought I'd ask. Any insight would be helpful! Thanks so much!
Good morning,
Thank you for your message. I checked with our graders on this and there is no quantified measurements for these terms but generally speaking a small split would be around 1" or less, a medium split would be around 1" to 4" and a large split could be up to the entire length of the spine. A fully split spine, however, would be noted as such on the label. Please be aware that these are just generalizations and you may find some examples that differ in length slightly.
