Playscripts and Promptbooks Collection |

Arrangement
|
| The finding aid for the Playscripts and
Promptbooks Collection is a conflation of the original inventory created in
2000-2001, and of a small addition that was catalogued in 2006. Currently the
addition is described only by a Box List which has been appended to the
original inventory, using the arrangement established with the original
inventory and continuing the box numbering sequence. The Scope and Contents
note and Index of Authors and Production Personnel do not make reference to the
addition, and the RLIN record for the collection summarizes the material in the
original inventory only. |
