@subsection About the Snippet List (SL)
+The Snippet List shows a selected set of LilyPond snippets from the
+@uref{http://lsr@/.dsi@/.unimi@/.it,LilyPond Snippet Repository}
+(LSR). It is in the public domain.
+
+Please note that this document is not an exact subset of LSR. LSR
+is running a stable LilyPond version, so any snippet which
+demonstrates new features of a development version must be added
+separately. These are stored in @file{input/new/} in the LilyPond
+source tree.
+
+The list of snippets for each subsection of the Notation Reference
+(NR) are also linked from the @strong{See also} portion.
