- From 1950 until around 1972, LRH gave approximately 3,000 lectures which were recorded on the equipment of the time. These lectures have been available in various forms over the years, with many now available on CD. Previous formats have included reel-to-reel tapes, cassettes, and in printed form as transcripts. A project was begun to issue all these lectures in printed form, called the "R&D Volumes" (Research and Discovery). The latest volume to be issued, Volume 15?, includes many of the Philadelphia Doctorate Course lectures from 1952.

Various lecture series have been made available over the years, but at a wild guess, no more than 1,500 of these lectures are readily available. [Someone want to list all these out with the number of lectures, or even their dates and titles?!]
