NB2: Some Monday-Saturday newspapers report Monday-Saturday but not Monday-Friday circulation. In such cases the figure in the Monday-Friday column refers to the Monday-Saturday circulation.

NB3: For Monday-Saturday newspapers that do not report separate weekday and Saturday circulation, the Monday-Saturday circulation figure appears in both the Weekday and the Saturday column.
