from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The repertory of the handwritten legacies in the libraries and archives of Switzerland appeared for the first time in print in 1967 in the series Sources on Swiss History . In 1992 a greatly expanded edition was published.

Continuation as a database

The Swiss National Library and the Swiss Literary Archives have converted the data from the printed edition from 1992 into a new database accessible via the Internet. Both family and corporate names can be searched in the database. Among the people there each minimum biographical information and any discount a briefly the description of the nature of the estate, as well as information about the scope and exact address of the locality.

The repertory has been integrated into the HelveticArchives (ISplus) archive database of the National Library since 2008.
