When a notebook is closed, you effectively remove the file from OneNote's
knowledge like you discovered. In the other case you describe, the notebook
is open, but not active or not the current one. The usual way of working
with this is to keep all notebooks open and only close a notebook if you
want to archive it. This is not just a question of how it looks like to you,
because open notebook are cached by OneNote (relevant if the notebook is
shared with other people or resides on another computer).
The nomenclature is pretty much in line with Word, Excel, etc except that in
OneNote, you don't normally close files like you would in those programs.
