This link was made after a language model re-read the damaged OCR (deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4-Pro); the reading was accepted only because the number and date or title it reported agree with the catalog. Its note: “The renewal number R630719 appears in two adjacent records. The first record (Bruce Gentry) has a damaged renewal number (R6€30718) and is likely a separate entry. The second record, 'The Crime doctor's diary', clearly shows R630719 with matching dates and claimant.”
