Arrangement
The previous 'Item List' was not arranged into any particular order, and on recataloguing in 2023 was reordered by date. The numerous files relating to AFB's books were moved to a new series of literary papers, FEBR 7. Some files, which had "Autobiography" written on the cover, were left as they were in FEBR 2, as these were found to consist of random papers which AFB had apparently put aside as possible future source material for one of his volumes of memoirs, but had not done anything else with them.
Other Finding Aids
Formerly described as the Item List.
