[1] Bateson, 202. Ut scilicet prima particula de numero et
perfecta voluminum cognicione loci precentorem informet, secunda
ad solicitam leccionis frequenciam ffratres studiosos provocet,
et tercia de singulorum tractatuum repercione festina scolaribus
itinera manifestet.--James, 407.

In the second part, or catalogue following the shelf-list, are
set out the tier letter, shelf number, book number, short
title; then the number of the folio on which each tract in
a volume begins, and finally the first words of the tract
itself.[1]
[1] James (M. R.), 410. For further information on monastic
catalogues consult Surtees Soc., vii; Becker; James (M. R.);
Bateson; Zentralblatt; Gottlieb.

Most books were bound by the monks themselves.
The commonest materials used for ordinary manuscripts
were wooden boards, covered with deerskin and calfskin,
either coloured red or used in its natural tint, and
parchment usually stained or painted red or purple.
