    The notebook in this collection do not include all communiqués issued by the Stavka. The Hoover Institution Library has the published Soobshcheniia shtaba verkhovnago glavnokomanduiushchago for the years 1914, 1915, and 1916 as a hard copy  and on microfilm . These published volumes contain the texts of all communiqués by the Stavka, which were numbered continuously:
    • The 1914 volume contains communiqués no. 1 (August 3, 1914) through no. 153 (December 31, 1914) • The 1915 volume contains communiqués no. 154 (January 1, 1915) through no. 530 (December 31, 1915) • The 1916 volume contains communiqués no. 531 (December 31, 1915/January 1, 1916) through no. 964 (December 31, 1916)
    A published 1917 volume does not appear to exist. Most likely, such a volume was not published anymore, as it would have had to be prepared in early 1918, i.e., after the Bolshevik seizure of power.
