The left hand column is labeled as ‘BROWSE’ and there are two main headings in this column: Codification and Other Sources. The first portion, labeled ‘Codification,’ contains a ‘Go To’ box and the topical listing of the codification (from General Principles through the Master Glossary). The ‘Go To’ box allows experienced users to enter a desired location within the Codification.
