PROSPECTS

In the interest of convenient research, the separate cataloguing of the approx. 2,000 illustrations in the journals between 1670 and 1790 ought to be considered. In the Collections@UrMEL portal, also operated by the ThULB, each individual illustration would be formally catalogued and linked to the data of the corresponding article or Observatio. This would have the advantage of making the illustrations more easily visible and also easier to filter.
