This is my view of Library Data for the Player's Book.

Library Data is a place for extra information that's not otherwise been covered, but the player might like to know about. It's more concise than a typical library data chapter or document: unnecessary detail is omitted.

Page count is important. Count the pages of Library Data in The Traveller Book and you'll see what I mean.

The rule is: if it can be left out, it is. Of course the rule is irregularly applied when I try to do this sort of thing. That's where you come in.

Dump your suggestions here. In the meantime, here are the titles of entries I've put in so far.

Because it's fundamental to the repatriation bond and mercenaries, the "Rules of Warfare" - should mention both the imperial, and the Geneva Conventions, and that similar accords exist in many historical contexts.

I'm still pondering this one, Rob.
