Wikipedia
In publishing, sidebar is a term for information placed adjacent to an article in a printed or Web publication, graphically separate but with contextual connection.
The term has long been used in newspaper and magazine page layout. It is often used as the title of legal groups' publications in the US as a pun on "the bar", a term for the legal profession: The Federal Bar Association, Montgomery Bar Association of Norristown Pennsylvania, and the Westmoreland Bar Association are three examples.
It is now common in Web design, where sidebars originated as advertising space and have evolved to contain information such as quick links to other parts of the site, or links to related materials on other sites. Online sidebars often include small bits of information such as quotes, polls, lists, pictures, site tools, etc.

In the United States, the sidebar is an area in a courtroom near the judge's bench where lawyers may be called to speak with the judge so that the jury cannot hear the conversation and/or they may speak off the record. Lawyers make a formal request by stating "may I approach the bench?" or, simply "may I approach?" to initiate a sidebar conference. If it is granted, then opposing counsel must be allowed to come forward and participate in the conversation.
The idea of a sidebar has its roots in Native American (specifically Cherokee) society, when in a council a member of the war or peace party wished to share information privately with a chief or shaman. This was usually because they did not wish for the attending Native Americans to panic or overrule their decision.
The term is also used generically to describe any conversation where some participants in a proceeding or meeting may step aside to discuss information not shared with the group.
The sidebar is a graphical control element that displays various forms of information to the right or left side of an application or desktop user interface. Status lines are similar elements displaying data on top or bottom edges.
