Excerpt from The Early Printed Books in the Library of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge: A Hand-List Arranged in Order of Country, Town and Press, With Short References to Proctor's Index and Other Bibliographical Works
The references are in all cases made as short as is consistent with intelligibility: for example, when a book is in both Hain and Proctor, only the number in the latter is given, as the Hain number may always be found through the Proctor reference.
Since the re-arrangement of the Library the early printed books have been placed together and many have been removed for this purpose from the Parker Cupboard. As the numbers have not been altered however, the phrase Parker Cupboard has been retained to explain an otherwise mysterious enumeration.
