- Details checked
- Access confirmed
Single search across some 3,500 European libraries, museums and archives, linking through to whoever holds the digitised item.
Before you rely on itThis is a discovery layer, not a library: a good share of records are metadata with a thumbnail, and reading or downloading usually means following the link out to the holding institution, whose rights terms vary item by item.
The first place to look for a European book, manuscript, map or photograph when you do not know which country holds it.Telebem editors
