This is a guide for Dutch Language and Literature
The Taylor Institution Library houses a small Dutch Collection, including literature, reference works and Middle Dutch manuscript editions. The Taylorian and the Bodleian have older printed works dating back to the time of the rich printing tradition in the Low Countries. Dutch medieval manuscripts may be found in the Bodleian Library, more specifically in the Collection Marshall and the Collection Junius.
SOLO - searches across the online catalogue and various (but not all!) e-resources. Use to find books, conference proceedings, journals, etc. that are available in Oxford. SOLO will also give article or working paper titles. For a more comprehensive search for articles use bibliographic databases, see 'Articles & Working Papers'. SOLO will link through to OLIS when 'check library holdings' for a specific title is selected.
