buttery book
buttery book n. now historical (at certain universities, esp. Oxford and Cambridge) a book in which the names of the members of a college are entered and a record kept of the money each owes to the buttery.At Oxford and Cambridge buttery books served as proof that a student had been resident in college for the requisite number of days each term. A cross against a student's name in the buttery meant that he was unable to receive food or prove that he had been resident in college on that day (see cross v. 4b).
