Part of a book jacket (4)

I believe the answer is:

flap

(Other definitions for flap that I've seen before include "State of agitation" , "Tab - tizzy - move wings" , "Agitated state; tab" , "Move wings - panic!" , "Wave up and down - panic" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and The New York Times.
