This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “List of Tabard Inn Library locations” as wikimedia list article. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q133094066. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1905, 1902, 1910 and 1913.

The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
