Illuminierte Handschriften im Internet: Kurzinventar des Zisterzienserstiftes Stams in Tirol

Illuminated Manuscripts on the Web: Brief Inventory of Manuscripts in Stams Abbey in Tyrol (translation of the title). The Brief Inventories were developed by art historians at the Commission for Paleography and Codicology of Medieval Manuscripts (Kommission für Schrift- und Buchwesen des Mittelalters – KSBM) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences (Oesterreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften – ÖAW). The Brief Inventory describing the library holdings of Stams Abbey (http://www.univie.ac.at/paecht-archiv-wien/ki/stams.html) is the second achievement of an innovative project which aims to present all of illuminated manuscripts preserved in selected small collections in Austria thus enabling the user to gain a comprehensive overview. The goal of the presentation at the "Bibliothekartag" is to explore strategies to search for and find the material presented by the Brief Inventory. The paper focuses on the growing importance of search engines
