Collation history

Proofread against the source text.

Proofread against the Internet Archive conferencereport1941a scan/OCR; confirmed body text, date/session metadata already correct.

Collated word-by-word against the original scan.

Heavyweight pass: verified source as the Internet Archive scan conferencereport1941a (111th Annual Conference, held Fri Apr 4 - Sun Apr 6, 1941). Rebuilt page reading order from the scan's DjVu XML word-coordinate data (scripts/ingest/cr-reading-order.py) and cross-checked every talk boundary, date, and session against the report's own exhaustive back-of-book index (leaf n133-136), which lists every address with its own page range and sub-topic headings. As with the 1941 October conference, this conference's original ingest was already complete and accurate: all 34 vault files map one-to-one to the 34 real discourses listed in the index, and the existing date/session/talk_order metadata was already correct with no speaker misattributions found. Filled in a page-anchored source_url for the handful of files that still had only the bare item link. Confirmed no missing addresses this pass.
