Data for this bibliography were initially obtained from the publisher Web site. There are numerous articles entitled Book Reviews or Book Notes in those Web pages, but alas, the pages do not record information about which books are discussed, so we often cannot follow our normal practice of including BibTeX entries for the referenced books, until all of the Book Review articles have been retrieved and examined. Part of that work has already been done at version 1.00, and continues with each minor version update. By version 1.05, the job was complete back to the start of publication in 1999, except for Book Reviews in issues of a moving window of the last year, which are inaccessible via the bibliographer's library subscription.

In mid-2013, up to volume 15, number 2, the publisher Web site claimed 477 articles, but their data produced only 396 entries. A search in the Web of Science database found 472 entries, but no data for volumes 1 and 2. A search in the EBSCO database found 282 entries, and the MathSciNet database produced 66 entries. The merger of those four sources with the essential tools bibsort, bibjoin, and biborder, produced 598 entries at version 1.00, but it is possible that a few entries from volumes 1 and 2 are missing, because we have only a single source database for those two volumes. Part of the confusion seems to be the Book Reviews and Book Notes articles: the publisher may have a single entry there, whereas the other databases have several entries, although they do not identify book titles, or provide author and ISBN data for those books.

The checksum field above contains a CRC-16 checksum as the first value, followed by the equivalent of the standard UNIX wc (word count) utility output of lines, words, and characters. This is produced by Robert Solovay's checksum utility.
