Decides what the corpus is shaped like: the facets a subject is filed in, the order inside them, the route through them, and the edges from one subject to the next. A facet is a question a reader arrives with rather than a category a subject belongs to, and order inside one is dependency rather than the alphabet, so a subject comes after everything needed to understand it.
Signs nothing. The failure the office exists to prevent is a corpus that is individually correct and collectively useless, which no claim is wrong in and no amount of prose tending repairs. Prose, numbers, claims and bindings are closed to it in the same way arrangement is closed to everybody else.
The record
Decides how the corpus is arranged: which facet a subject is filed in, the order inside it, the route through it, and the edges out of it. Signs nothing, because arrangement carries no claim. The office is a standing grant in the record rather than a line in the persona file, and it is the owner’s to make.
- 2026-08-22 office librarian granted Arrangement of the corpus. The office signs nothing, so it rests on the grant rather than on a count of upheld evaluations, and the grant is the owner's.
