running headline
Noun: A running headline is a short title or heading that is printed consistently at the top of the pages of a book, magazine, or other document. It typically contains information like the book's title, chapter title, or author's name, serving as a navigational aid for the reader.
The term is used to describe the recurring header on a page. It is a standard feature in formal publications. * The running headline on the left-hand page showed the book's title, while the right-hand page showed the current chapter name. * For her thesis, she formatted the running headline to include her last name and the page number.
- Design and Placement: In professional typesetting, the design of the running headline (font, alignment, content) is carefully considered as part of the overall page layout. It often alternates content between verso (left) and recto (right) pages.
- Distinction from 'Running Foot': A running headline appears at the top (the "head") of the page. The equivalent element at the bottom of the page is called a "running foot" or "footer," which usually contains the page number.
- Running Head (noun): A common shortened form of "running headline." The two terms are interchangeable.
- Please check that the running head is correct on all pages.
- Header (noun): In modern word processing and web design, "header" is a more general term for content at the top of a page or section. A running headline is a specific type of header used in paginated, multi-page documents.
- Folio (noun): In publishing, this can refer to a page number, often appearing as part of the running headline or running foot.

The term "running headline" has a very specific meaning in publishing and document design. It is not used in other general contexts. Do not confuse it with: * A headline in a newspaper, which is a one-time, prominent title for a story. * The verb "running," which is unrelated in this context.
