Scope and Content Note

Daily sheets record the schedule of films viewed by division personnel and the actions taken.

Each "booking sheet" contains columns for data on the film footage of each booking, number of reels, priority (time or date), title of picture, applicant, action taken, and reviewers (the last is usually not filled in). On each booking sheet, the films are grouped into the following categories: leftover booking (reels that were not completed the last working day); referrals and rescreenings; new bookings; added bookings; advance bookings; and outside bookings. Monthly totals are provided for number of reels and film footage viewed.
