Welcome to the online catalog of KBR.
About the contents of this catalog
The majority of KBR's collections is recorded in this catalog. Some documents haven't been catalogued yet :
- 1. A lot of manuscripts are only recorded with their call number, which allows you to reserve them online. If you are looking for a manuscript you can also consult :
- - the digitised reference works
- - printed catalogs, in the reading room
- - or contact a librarian.
- 2. Collections dating from before 1985 : it's possible that a document is missing in the online catalog. In that case it is recommended to consult the printed card catalog as well. They are classified by name of author, subject or title.
- 3. The publications that arrive via legal deposit and that have not yet been catalogued.
To consult a document of the collection which hasn't been catalogued yet, you can use the special request form.
