Bayerischs 1 StaatsbibMothek MORchen J Manufactured in the United States of America ^| 67-cr^ HOW TO USE THE GUIDE The Scholarly Resources Guide to the Colonial Office File 733: Palestine Original Correspondence is designed to make locating a particular file a simple procedure. There are two ways a researcher can find a file: by citation or by subject matter. By Citation A typical citation to the C.O. Palestine Original Corres­ pondence is CO 733/221/97168. "CO" is the abbreviation for Colonial Office; 733 is the class number for Palestine; 221 is the volume number in which the file is contained; and 97168 is the file number. The following steps will make reference to this citation. Step 1. Volumes are numbered consecutively throughout the 733 class. Find Volume 221 in the Guide. Step 2. Files within volumes appear in numerical order, although they are not always consecutive. Find File 97168 by checking down the File Number column under Volume 221. Step 3. Note the year and reel number for this file. Reels are numbered consecutively for each year. File 97168 appears on Reel 13 of the year 1932. Step 4. Note the number of folios preceding File 97168. This gives the researcher an idea of how far into Volume 221 he or she must go to reach the desired file. In this case, 34 folios precede File 97168. The researcher now has all the information necessary to locate the file in the microfilm. It appears on Reel 13 of year 1932, 34 folios into Volume 221. By Subject To find a file on a particular subject, read down the Subject columns until that subject appears. Then use the four finding steps given before to locate that file in the microfilm. The docket sheet for each file usually lists previous and in BRITISH COLONIAL OFFICE YEAR: 1932 REEL: 13 VOLUME: 220 (Cont.)

Note, however, that these citations do not always refer to Class 733 material or even to Colonial Office files. Other classes of Colonial Office material and other offices (such as the Foreign Office) are indicated by the abbreviations prefixed to the citations. Explanations of these abbreviations can be found in Public Record Office reference books . THE REGISTER REELS FOR CO. 733: PALESTINE ORIGINAL CORRESPOND- ence The researcher who wants additional information on the files in CO. 733 before looking at the actual documents can refer to the Register Reels, C.O. 793, which accompany this microfilm program. The registers provide more lengthy subject descriptions of the files than does the Scholarly Resources Guide. They also indicate file dates and senders, and what action, if any, was taken upon receipt of each file. This information is given for every file in C.O. 733, including those that were "destroyed under statute" by the Colonial Office (which are not listed in the Scholarly Resources Guide). v * SAMPLE DOCKET 0 **?*?. ^L^tc-^ <£c CD- No. 4Ljp0 0Z* Co 7"S*S SUBJECT CD- £*i~4lrTt -O -•**, «-•- **•%„ * x n Previous b ^A <r <'6 ?&*+/&, £f4* . c '^/fs/tu, Subsequent <&y&~0& /Ay f!t!t !:?£& •nJ.ai. .->. *fcin*. ••—•m-** VI SAMPLE DOCKET FOR CO. 733: PALESTINE ORIGINAL CORRESPONDENCE A docket appears at the beginning of each Class 733 file. Its elements are: 1--Year in which the material was filed. 2--Country or area to which the file refers. All Class 733 material refers to Palestine. 3--File number. These run numerically but not always consecu­ tively throughout Class 733, due to certain files having been "destroyed under statute" by the Colonial Office. 4--Class number. 5--Volume number. These run consecutively throughout Class 733. Volumes contain varying numbers of files, depending on file lengths. 6--Item number. This number refers to the position of the file within its volume. In this case, the file is the first one in the volume. Not all files were assigned item numbers; they are not necessary for file location, and the Scholarly Resources Guide does not use them. 7--Subject of the file. 8--Citations of immediately previous and subsequent files on the same topic. If the citation has no prefix, it refers to a Class 733 file; prefixes indicate files from other classes or offices.
