* In compiling his list of books, Lenin drew upon the catalogs of Swiss libraries: the National Library in Bern, the Cantonal Library in Aarau, the City Libraries in Basel and Neuchâtel, and the Cantonal Library in Lugano. These catalogs are not currently available to the editorial staff, nor is a significant portion of the books on Lenin’s list. Where Lenin provided incomplete information about a book, its publication was determined based on the number of volumes cited by Lenin, the year of publication, or other details present in the list.
