Transcription Notes:
What is important is the L.R. initial and number, then comes the Vol. and year. L.R.B.7 - the "B" referring to the first initial of the last name "Bates", and the "7" is the 7th "B" letter of that Vol. This is what is so important to have first, because someone searching for Bates, J.A. will be shown, "L.R.B.7.1st.V.67." as one of the references. *Remember, sometimes there are more than one name in the left margin, so both names are going to have that "L.R." letter and number come up if searched for. ---------- Reopened for Editing 2024-06-10 19:36:53
