Definition

"A free-swinging joint produced by setting the board a slight distance (approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch, depending on the size of the book) away from the backing shoulder. This type of joint allows thicker covering material to be used, while still allowing the covers to open easily. The French joint is one of the more notable characteristics of library binding." <ref name="Etherington">Roberts, Matt T. and Don Etherington. "French joint". Bookbinding and the Conservation of Books, A Dictionary of Descriptive Terminology. Conservation Online, 1994. Web. 2 September 2014.</ref>

"A joint formed by setting a board from approximately 2 to 7 millimeteres...awy from the shoulder, depending on the size of the book. Case bindings have this type of joint." <ref name="ABC">Greenfield, Jane. ABC of bookbinding : a unique glossary with over 700 illustrations for collectors & librarians. New Castle, DE : Oak Knoll Press ; New York, NY : Lyons Press, 1998</ref>

"Grooves formed in the covering material in the spaced joints found between the back edges of the boards and the backing joints of the bookblock, also known as a French joints or American grooves. They are made possible by keeping the back edges of the boards a short distance (often approximately equivalent to the thickness of the board, or a 'straw's breadth' according to de Bray) away from the joints of the bookblock and moulding the covering material into the groove so created. This shaping of the cover not only encourages an easier hingeing movement along each joint, but also spreads the strain of opening across a wider strip of the covering material, thus creating a more stable and durable joint. Joint grooves were used in all European countries from the late 16th century onwards and the terms 'French joints' and 'American grooves' are therefore misleading."<ref name="Lig">Language of Bindings Thesaurus.
