They thus do not include the titles of publications of the services themselves, except in so far as they treat of the services, their work and problems. Nor do they include books or articles dealing merely with technical features other than administrative of the work of the services. In a few cases explanatory notes have been appended where it was thought they would aid in making known the character or value of the publication to which they relate. After the completion of the series the bibliographies may be assembled and separately published as a bibliography of the Adminis trative Branch of the National Government.
