Dates are given (where available) for librarians, but not for other persons; similarly all librarians are given full names, while others appear in the best-known form (e.g. Jast, Louis Stanley (1868– 1944), but Eliot, T. S.). Public libraries are listed under the town or city or county; other libraries (and institutions) under their own name. Corporate bodies often referred to by acronyms are indexed under the full form, with the excep- tions of Aslib (which changed its name to this form) and the various co-operative information services like BRASTACS, where the acronym was clearly thought of first! Cross-references are given from the acronyms such as SCONUL.
