Manuscript funds

The University Library is involved since some years to the national census of the manuscripts, coordinated by the Istituto Centrale per il Catalogo Unico e le Informazioni Bibliografiche (ICCU). The census is made possible thanks to a special software in Windows, which uses some very user-friendly research masks.
In the local database Manus , visible at the University head office, the Library has inclued: a catalogue "derived" from a recent printed catalogue so called La Musica dei libri . Opere musicali dei secoli XIII-XIX della Biblioteca Universitaria di Genova. Catalogo , edited by Oriana Cartaregia, Calogero Farinella, Graziella Grigoletti, with essays by Anna De Floriani and Gian Enrico Cortese, Genoa, Italian Libraries Association - Sezione Ligure, 1996 (Biblioteche e Fondi librari in Liguria, 9), and letters of Morpurgo Rodocanachi Correspondance.
By the end of 2004 a rehabilitation project for the heritage of the entire manuscript works included in the 'Topographical Inventory of the manuscripts drafted in the 50ies by Antonio Tamburini’ will be concluded.
Whilst waiting to deliver the fruit of the project Manus online, we provide some search tools established during the years by librarians and scholars.
