Instructions on Searching the Database
Select “Search Author-Copies” on the top menu.
The filters in the left column enable you to search and refine results by Author, Title, and Location.
- To search by Author, click on the dropdown menu in the Author search box. You can type in the name of an author, or scroll to select an author from the list of names provided. You may select more than one name.
- To search by Title, type your search term into the search box beneath the Title heading. This search also retrieves results which contain that term within the entry’s full description.
- To search by Location, click on the word “Location” beneath the Location heading. This will provide a hierarchical list of the countries, cities, and holding institutions for the Handexemplare in the database.
You can use multiple filters to search and refine results. More filters will result in narrower search results.
