Digitisation of the medieval Latin and French manuscripts from the collection ‘Manuscripta Hamiltoniana’ (Ms. Ham.) of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin – Preußischer Kulturbesitz

Project object

The aim of the current project is the creation and up-to-date presentation of the images and metadata of 257 medieval Latin and French-language manuscripts from the Berlin collection „Manuscripta Hamiltoniana (Ms. Ham.)“. The appropriate presentation as well as the long-term-reusability of the images and their metadata will be ensured by their integration into the SBB's presentation platform („Digitalisierte Sammlungen“). In addition, these informations will also be available in the specific national manuscript portal and central registry for digitized manuscripts, the „Handschriftenportal“.
