Notes on some of the back numbers:

B27-1985: pagination continuous 1-14; then odd numbers only 15-27. The backs of these sheets of amendments were intentionally blank.
B30-1988: similarly 37 and 39 were single-sided, unbacked sheets. This issue contains the findings of the Bliss User Survey of 1987-88 (pp 11-17); also an enormous number of amendments to Class T.
B31-1989: pp. 7-11 are a reprint of Douglas Foskett's article "Thoughts on revising a bibliographical classification scheme" which appeared in International forum on information and documentation, 14(1), January 1989.
B34-1992: pp.16-24 are a reprint of the outline of Mathematics as published.
