Library collection, including monographs, theses and
dissertations, periodicals, and series. This guide
highlights some of the larger or more significant
series in the collection. Theyare organized primarily
geographically, with the exceptions of the ancient,
Byzantine, and iconography sections. Researchers
should note that although some titles fall under a

under the heading of Great Britain, and the
Marburger Index, under Germany, are two such
series.
