For material published in 1915, use Zc72 915pa, followed by the next available sequential number.

Do not add additional lower-case letters to denote edition or subsequent editions, as outlined in the general WA classing instructions; simply use the next available sequential number.

For multiple copies, use the same sequential number, followed by “Copy 1,” “Copy 2,” etc.

For material published in 1916, use Zc72 916pa, followed by the next available sequential number.

Do not add additional lower-case letters to denote edition or subsequent editions, as outlined in the general WA classing instructions; simply use the next available sequential number.

For multiple copies, use the same sequential number, followed by “Copy 1,” “Copy 2,” etc.
