Search Our CollectionsGuidance on Using Item-level CataloguesA catalogue is arranged to provide information about a collection as a whole at the top level, becoming more specific to individual items at lower levels of description. Each catalogued collection has a reference number (an alpha-numeric code), e.g. LHB1, all records within that collection will have a reference number beginning LHB1/ Please quote the relevant reference number if you contact us with a request to view a record. Each catalogue begins with a top level entry, for example: LHB1, Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh; this entry describes the whole collection and will include historical and biographical information and a contents page Within the catalogue you will find more specific levels of description, for example: > LHB1/1 Managers Minutes, 1728-1948; this entry describes a series of records of the same type > LHB1/1/1 Minutes, February 1728 –December 1741; this entry describes an individual record within that series To View the CataloguesThe catalogues are available to view as Adobe PDF documents, to view them you will need the Adobe Viewer software which is free to download.
