Milestone in HMML’s Austrian metadata upgrade

Posted: 2025-02-04

With the addition of records for 1,105 manuscripts from Melk Abbey, HMML has reached an important milestone in the improvement of metadata for manuscripts from Austrian libraries. As of January 2025, HMML’s microfilm holdings from all Austrian libraries—except the Austrian National Library (cataloging is underway) and the Mechitarist Library in Vienna—have been added to Reading Room and are available for public use. This includes more than 22,000 manuscripts from 41 Austrian locations, housed in 72 repositories. Metadata for these microfilmed collections is available online in HMML Reading Room.
