Publications
Series A/I documents individual prints published between 1600 and 1800 and Series A/II music manuscripts after 1600 with locations. Series A ought to be arranged alphabetically by composer as it is in the volumes of the Series A/I. Since Series A/II is available electronically as a database, far more access options can be offered. Series B is designed to cover specific categories of repertory, such as collected prints from the 16th to the 18th centuries, German hymns, or source literature on music theory in Latin, Greek, Arabic, Hebrew and Persian. These Series A and B are supplemented by Series C, the Directory of Music Research Libraries.
