List of directories already digitized

The ‘Verein für Computergenealogy’ and their volunteers have completely digitized a few volumes in a few cities by hand. However, it is not done systematically which makes it for example not yet suitable for some long panel/longitudinal data analysis. You can find them under:

List of books already digitized

The ‘Verein für Computergenealogy’ has scanned a few books for various cities already. However, it is not scanned systematically which makes it for example not yet suitable for some long panel/longitudinal data analysis.

Also various university libraries made these books available e.g. Uni Köln and Münster.
