Special notes may relate to provenance, collection arrangements and complexities, restrictions and access, finding aids, scope, and content.  Description of content is accomplished both through the use of notes, particularly the contents note and the summary note, and through the preparation of separate finding aids.  See C3.1.  Only those notes with a special relevance to collection-level cataloging are listed in these guidelines.
