Corrigenda

/ˌkɔrɪˈdʒendə/ noun

Definition

A list of errors and corrections to be made to a printed book or text; plural of corrigendum.

Etymology

From Latin corrigenda, neuter plural of corrigendus 'needing correction' (future passive participle of corrigere), used as a noun for items to be corrected.

Kelly Says

The corrigenda page in a book is an admission of fallibility—publishers use it to fix major errors discovered too late, turning imperfection into transparency.
