My policy is to link only to pages where (a) the full instrument is shown, and (b) the instrument was put on the web by the person who created the instrument, thus ensuring that the instrument was intended to be put into the public domain.  If you know of additional pages for me to link to, please e-mail me via the link above.  Thanks to everyone who has sent in links; there are too many of you to reply individually!

#Bradbury and Fincham have collaborated on some measures, which appear in both of their collections above.  Note that some slight variations in wording between each of their versions of a given instrument appear to exist.  Thus, if you're planning on using one of these instruments, you should inspect both versions before deciding which to adopt.
