never did that until i moved to a small town around high school age.. they had us cover our books on the first day of all my classes and i had no idea wtf they were talking about or how to do it.. everyone else did it 2nd nature because apparently they'd been doing it for all the years they'd been in school..

it was supposed to 'protect' the book cover from damage i guess
