bankbook

Depositor's transaction record

A bankbook is a small booklet issued by a bank to record deposits, withdrawals, and the running balance of a savings account.

Before electronic banking, account holders brought their bankbooks to the bank to have transactions entered: She kept her bankbook in a locked drawer.

Now largely obsolete, replaced by statements and online access.
