2. Exhibition names are listed as given in original reference materials. This is not always logical or clearly sequential, such as shown by listings of the B.C. Society of Fine Arts exhibitions.

3. Exhibition catalogues are transcribed and formatted as identically to the original catalogue as possible. In cases where information is incorrectly spelled in the original catalogue, those errors are transcribed as printed but noted with (sic) wherever practical.

4. Only a fraction of the relevant exhibition catalogues have been transcribed so far. This is a work in progress. Catalogues have been selected for transcription on the basis of:
     i. covering a complete range of dates from 1890 to 1950
     ii. a selection of catalogues from each decade that BC ARTISTS includes
     iii. a selection of catalogues from each relevant artists group or venue for which a catalogue could be found
     iv. a selection of solo exhibition catalogues
     v. a selection of notable exhibitions, such as the 1890 Vancouver Art Association exhibition or the 1932 All-Canadian Exhibition
     vi. a selection of exhibitions involving a large number of artists, such as the Stanley Park in Pictures show or any B.C. Artists annual.

5. All locations are in Vancouver BC unless noted otherwise.
