Arrangement Note

The newsletters are filed chronologically by date. It is important to note the irregularity of publication. During some periods the newsletters were published monthly and in others bi-monthly. There are volume and issue numbers, but these are unreliable as there are several aberrations in the sequence. Occasionally the usual format is abandoned for special reports, but these are filed in their regular date sequence.
