In the comment https://github.com/sanskrit-lexicon/csl-corrections/issues/54#issuecomment-803932369, @Andhrabharati mentions a resource that we may want to make available at CDSL.

This issue is opened so potential use of this resource at CDSL may be considered further.

For convenience, here is the text of that comment:

I may mention here that BOR was also printed as 3 fascicules originally, like 22 parts of Vacaspatyam; and each part of it has a big discussion about one topic in the beginning. A nice idea it was. If interested, I can give the whereabouts of the 4 parts.

@Andhrabharati How might this resource be useful at CDSL ?

Maybe somewhere in the Documentation for the 'big discussion' sections?
