I would think at a minimum, Preface, Forward, and Introduction ought to be included under the umbrella of core content, while bibliographies should be considered highly desirable, but not absolutely essential.

How can we get the definition of "core content" widened. I was surprised to read that preface, introduction, bibliography and foreword are unnecessary to a book's core.E.

The indices and bibliography are not core content, nor are the foreword, acknowledgments, preface, and introduction as you said, nor any glossary, resource list, or appendices.Carrie ----- Original Message ---- From: Ann Parsons <akp@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, April 1, 2008 4:20:18 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Core content Hi all, Devorah, in case anyone hasn't mentioned this or answered this, core content is just what its name implies; the major text of the book. The contents, indeces, bibliography, etc. Any forward, acknowledgements, prefaces introductions are part of the core content. Ann P. -- Ann K.
