Questions
- What do we want to do with omitted entry numbers? Just skip them? Or should they be included in the digital version but not the printed?
- Are the numbers on Donna’s transcript the new, correct numbers? (I know Mike said that Mailer mis-numbered some entries.)
- Should each entry date have its own index page? Perhaps each numbered entry could be summarized here?
- Should each numbered entry should have its own (sub)page? I think yes.
- Should each numbered entry have a title other than a number? Each could have a shortcut, so if the title is
Lipton’s Journal/December 1, 1954/1
, the shortcut could beLJ1
or justL1
. - Should we categorize numbered entries? Thematically? Style of entry?
