Of portability I will have more to say later, but we all access information in books randomly by riffling their pages (which is why we prefer books over the "sequential access" of microfilm), and publishers assist us in this activity with tables of contents, indexes,
running heads, chapter titles and subheadings.
Distinguish the
running head or foot from the text itself.

running head spring as outlined in the curriculum guide, and therefore the instructor was negligent (Lenich, 1987).
One drawback to this collection is that the volume has no titles in the
running heads and no separation between stories other than a line break.
A detailed table of contents, chapter thumb tabs, and topic-specific
running heads make it easy to locate information.
The notes are grouped together at the back, where there are no
running heads to identify the chapters to which the notes belong.
My one reservation here is that the
running heads do not indicate the chapter numbers, but only the generic headings; since the indexes refer to entries by numbers, it would have been convenient to have these in the
running heads as well.
