Administrative Handbook: Appendix H - Sources That Do Not Require Photocopies to Laurel

http://heraldry.sca.org/laurel/admin.html#APPENDIXH 

This is a list of "standard books" that do not require photocopies to be sent to Laurel. Note that the fact that a name element or armorial motif appears in these sources is no guarantee of registerability. They don't need copies simply because the Laurel office and most kingdom heraldic offices have copies of these books; Laurel urges the Kingdom Colleges to acquire copies of any they do not have. Note: The LoI must contain the header name or page number and edition of the book in which the reference is found. Standard brief forms that are used to refer to them in commentary are given in brackets ([]); those books with no standard brief form must be cited with full name.

Note that the list below is outdated as of 10/2022. Some new references have been added and the official page above has been re-organized (in a way that doesn't translate well to a format like this) and includes links to on-line versions of most of the references, which is highly recommended.
