ADAonline's annotations and its ADA text use the page and line numbers of the Vintage edition (New York, 1990), which preserves the pages of the 1969 first American and English editions but also incorporates both Nabokov's 1970 "Notes to ADA by Vivian Darkbloom" and corrections to the novel made by Vladimir Nabokov, Dmitri Nabokov and Brian Boyd.
The annotations in ADAonline are updated versions of the material in The Nabokovian, but the chapters online stop two years prior to the current issue of the journal.
Brian Boyd's Nabokov's Ada: The Place of Consciousness is available in the revised and expanded edition (2001), with a hundred new pages of text and two new indexes, from Cybereditions.com, either as an e-text or as a quality paperback.
