Whenever a document is recorded by a county recorder or a copy of a document has been inserted into a book of record other than that designated by law, but is later included in the correct index, the document from the date of indexing imparts notice of its contents to all persons. Subsequent purchasers, mortgagees, lienholders and encumbrancers purchase and take with like notice and effect as if the document had been recorded in the proper book of record.
