beautifulduck472 I have a book that has a lot of back matter and I am not sure if I should use back matter or back-matter. I have seen it both ways. I want to make sure I use the correct term.
diane_fitzsimmons Back matter is a term used to describe the material found at the end of a book. This includes the index, glossary, acknowledgements, and bibliography. While back matter is sometimes considered to be one word, it is actually two words.
