Reading list for both the Core Exam and for Prosem

Does anybody have an electronic copy of the Core Reading List which could be posted here? -Ingbert

Here is the copy I worked from. Please note that all typographic errors and malformatted citations are NOT my fault, this was copied from the now defunct GSLIS website. Blame the "information professionals" who created the list in the first place :) -Cameron
