daytimer

Personal schedule keeper

A daytimer is a pocket-sized appointment book or planner organized by day, used for scheduling and keeping track of tasks.

The term became so associated with personal organizers that Daytimer (or Day-Timer) is a trademark.

Before smartphones, carrying a daytimer was standard professional practice: She flipped through her daytimer looking for an open slot.
