Writing notebook Oxford 400154950 B5 hardcover 80 sheets assorted colours

Oxford 400154950 is a B5-format writing notebook with a hardcover and 80 sheets, offered in assorted monochromatic colours. Designed for note-taking, journaling and everyday writing tasks, the notebook pairs a sturdy cover with a compact B5 size for use at school, in the office or on the move. The product is part of the OXFORD Signature range and features thick white Optik Paper® engineered for comfortable writing on both sides with minimal show-through, a flexible thread-sewn binding that allows the book to lie flat, a ribbon page marker, an expandable rear pocket and an elastic strap for secure closure. Pages can be digitised and searched using the free SCRIBZEE smartphone app.

Advantages

The notebook uses Optik Paper® that offers high opacity, smoothness and whiteness suitable for all types of pens including fountain pens, enabling clear writing on both sides of each sheet. Thread-sewn binding ensures the book lays flat for comfortable writing across the spread and improves durability compared with simple glued bindings. The hardcover protects pages during transport and everyday use, while the ribbon marker, elastic strap and rear expandable pocket help keep notes organised and accessible. Integration with the SCRIBZEE app allows captured pages to be converted into searchable digital text for easier retrieval.

To digitise pages, follow the instructions in the free SCRIBZEE app to capture and convert pages into searchable digital text.

Usage recommendations

For best results use pens recommended for fountain-pen-compatible papers if you require a particularly smooth wet ink feel; allow a short drying time before closing the book to avoid smudging. Regularly scan important pages with SCRIBZEE to keep a searchable backup of notes and ideas.
