As the introduction states:
This manuscript is Mozart's record of his compositions in the last seven years of his life, and thus is a uniquely important document. During this period, from February 1784 until December 1791, he composed many of his best-known works, including his five mature operas, several of his most beautiful piano sonatas, and his last three great symphonies, as well as several famous lesser works.
...
Mozart organised the entries in the catalogue in the order in which they were completed. On the left-hand page he entered five compositions, each with its date, title, and often its instrumentation. He sometimes added further information such as the name of the singer, where it was composed, or who had commissioned the piece. He divided the right-hand page into five pairs of staves on which he wrote the opening bars of each work.
It's an interesting time capsule to thumb through, especially with the helpful annotations for each work. Full marks to the British Library for this one.
