The last time I looked at the text Lizette quotes was a long time ago,
and its current version contains the subtext

<begin extract from extract>
The directory is located on DASD with the data set, and is updated
whenever the module is changed. The directory entry contains
information about the module and where it is located in storage.
</end extract from extract>

which is at best misleading.  The data-set directory contains no
information about where in virtual or real storage any copy of a
member may have been loaded and no indicator that it is currently
resident.  The phrase 'in storage' should replaced by 'in the data
set'.
