Quarto-sized facsimiles are placed in numbered bookcases at the rear of the Special Collections Reading Room. Other formats are placed in bookcases at the long side: plano (p), folio (f) or octavo (o).

Searching in the online catalogue with truncated holding information (*) is a fuzzy search; filter the result lists for relevant items. The bookcase numbers and letters of the shelves in the Special Collections Reading Room are indicated in the catalogue records.
