The # signals that what follows it is some Scheme code (a Scheme expression).
In this case #part-first-page happens to refer to the same thing as
\part-first-page. Generally it’s clearer to use the \ form in cases like this
(and save # for inserting some Scheme code that doesn’t have a \ equivalent).
