Ex: This list indicates the dates the reports were tabled and any further action take.

Ex: Most publications are probably free distribution material and whilst that does not absolve the publishers from the obligation of legal deposit it is probable that many local authorities do not submit their materials.

Ex: Here is an institution which knows, neither rank nor wealth within its walls, which stops the ignorant peer or the ignorant monarch at its threshold, and declines to unveil to him its treasures, or to waste time upon him, and yet welcomes the workman according to his knowledge or thirst for knowledge.

Ex: Officially known as SOLEX, this exhibition showcases mainly IT based products for the legal profession.

Ex: The book's date label is stamped in the usual way, and the reader must surrender one token for each book he is borrowing.

Ex: There should be plenty of space to lay out all the books attractively and for people to move about without feeling too crowded.
