Card index of Manuscripts Department's microfilms

Enter to database


Card index of Manuscripts Department's microfilms consists of about 3,000 call numbers. It provides readers with information regarding which of the codices have been microfilmed, and whether it has a negative and positive, or only one of these copies. On the catalog card number of microfilm is also displayed.
First microfilms were created in the 50s of the twentieth century in the National Library. In the 60s they were already created in the WUL's Reprographic and Digitization Unit.
Currently we are abandoning this method of protecting of the collection, for the digitization and presentation in the Digital Library.
Microfilms from the Manuscript Department can be used in the Special Collections Reading Room.
