HAO Corpus References

The canonical bibliography for works cited by the HAO corpus, followed by the separately assembled research library and its extraction notes.


1. Scope and method

This appendix distinguishes two source sets. Section 2 is the canonical bibliography for works that remain cited in the corpus after a full citation and claim audit. Section 4 is the separately assembled 116-work research library preserved from the earlier extraction pass; §5 preserves that pass’s exclusions and anomalies.

The audit froze the 48 records in the former §2 as its baseline and independently scanned the numbered chapters, docs/humanized-autonomous-organization.md, and docs/appendices/lineage.md for live author–year citations. Four additional citation candidates found in that scan received supplemental records. Local file paths, corpus cross-references, statutes, and named provenance artifacts were excluded from the citation inventory unless the corpus cited an external publication through them.

For each of the 52 audit records, the audit established or tested the bibliographic identity, rebuilt every live occurrence, identified the claim or reference-list scope attached to it, and assigned an occurrence-level verdict. Evidence came from original publications, official publisher or journal records, DOI and authoritative registry metadata, author or responsible-organization archives, and official repositories. General web search was used to locate those records, not as evidence. A similarly titled work was not substituted for a defective citation unless that different work was separately inspected and adopted; no such replacement was made in this audit.

The resulting §2 contains 39 distinct works: 36 works represented by retained or merged baseline records and three retained supplemental works. Eleven baseline records were removed, one supplemental record was removed, and the duplicate Ostrom identity B035 was merged with B032. The complete occurrence-level evidence, search boundaries, verdicts, repairs, and unresolved identity or access limits are in Full Citation Audit.

The research library in §4 remains a separate 116-work extraction. Comparison by canonical title finds no overlap between its 116 titles and the 39 works in §2. Its annotations retain their original status as condensations of the staged library summaries; the full citation audit did not convert those annotations into claim-level reviews of the underlying 116 works.

2. Works cited in the corpus

Thirty-nine distinct works remain in, or were added to, the canonical corpus bibliography. Entries are ordered by the canonical first-listed author or responsible organization. The invisible audit comments connect each work to its stable record in Full Citation Audit; B032 and B035 identify the same 1990 book and therefore share one entry.

3. Citation integrity audit: completed

The full audit closes the earlier staging pass’s 11-item citation-integrity task. That task consisted of one author-attribution error, one year inconsistency, one title-and-year conflation, and eight identities that the staging pass could not corroborate:

  • B017 was corrected from Fairfield to Mike Moyer and to the verified title Slicing Pie: Funding Your Business Without Funds.
  • B033 was normalized to the verified 2005 publication year for Understanding Institutional Diversity.
  • B035 was identified as a duplicate, misdated form of B032 and merged into the 1990 Governing the Commons entry.
  • B003, B005, B006, B007, B014, B019, B031, and B036 were removed after the audit found no primary record for the cited identity within the documented search boundary, or found that the supplied metadata belonged to a different work. Related publications were not substituted silently.

The full-corpus pass also resolved defects outside that original list. B009 and B047 were removed because their cited identities could not be established. B015 identifies a real book, but its pre-audit placement did not establish a relationship to the containing section, so that occurrence and its canonical-list placement were removed. S001 was removed because Dunbar’s 1992 primate study does not support an 8–15-person human work-team range. B032 and B035 now share one canonical work; no replacement work was added. The remaining metadata corrections include canonical author responsibility, edition, title, publication year, publisher, DOI, and pagination where the former forms conflicted with primary records.

The audit also assessed the claims attached to each occurrence. Supported claims were retained and citations normalized; partially supported claims were narrowed to the inspected source; broad but unattached works remain only as scoped general references; unsupported source attributions were removed; and surviving model mechanisms that exceed the sources are identified as corpus proposals. The lineage account now distinguishes the verified Wikipedia revision and the two corrected scholarly chapter identities from chronology that the available repository record cannot establish.

The 48 baseline records and four supplemental records remain in Full Citation Audit, including records for removed and merged citations. That appendix is the controlling record for occurrence locations, verdicts, pinpoint evidence, bounded searches, forbidden historical strings, repair actions, and unresolved identity or access limits. Section 2 above is only the canonical bibliography of the 39 works that remain cited after those decisions.

4. Research library

116 works, assembled from the deduplicated PDF collection described in §1, grouped by the seven themes the staging extraction used, with its group counts. One annotated entry per work; annotations are condensed from machine-generated summaries of each document’s content, not composed from the documents themselves. Entries marked [metadata incomplete] had no reliable author, or no reliable year, from any source consulted (39 of 116). Each entry closes with its library reference key (for example, [icn-0013]) for traceability back to the canonical collection.

5. Excluded

Two documents in the source PDF collection were excluded from the research library above as non-bibliographic:

  • icn-0096 — a CliffsNotes study guide for Lord of the Flies. Confirmed by its own machine-extracted title (“Cliffsnotes Lord Of The Flies”) and summary (literary analysis of the novel). Unrelated to the corpus’s subject matter. Named here so a later pass does not re-add it.
  • icn-0116 — a Docusaurus site-configuration file for the provide.io governance website. A PDF snapshot of a docusaurus.config file (site URL, organization name, docs and blog paths), confirmed by its machine-extracted title (“provide.io governance”) and summary (site-configuration details). A build artifact, not a reference work. Named here so a later pass does not re-add it.

A full filename scan for junk-pattern keywords (cliffsnotes, sparknotes, wikipedia, test, sample, lorem, placeholder) across all 118 canonical documents found no other candidates; these two are believed to be the complete set within this collection.

One document present in the collection and in its machine analysis is missing from the upstream index. icn-0118 (“Cooperative Living and Governance,” in the Cooperative Economics & Worker Ownership group above) exists as a file in the collection’s canonical/ directory and has a complete machine-generated analysis, but does not appear in indexes/library-index.csv, the collection’s own index of 117 documents — nor, therefore, in that index’s stated document count. It is included in this appendix’s count of 116 works. Its provenance fields normally drawn from the index (checksum, source listing) are unavailable because the index row does not exist. This is a gap in the source collection’s own index, not a decision made in assembling this appendix.
