Passages taken from book (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

extracts

(Other definitions for extracts that I've seen before include "Takes out pieces from the text" , "Passages taken from, say, books" , "Passages from books, etc." , "Draws out portions of books" , "Parts taken out" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
