online. However, for some part of the holdings hand- and machine written repertories and card indices are kept. As a rule these are available at the information desk or in the reading room.

- Subject-related repertories for all manuscript subjects (sorted by languages)
- Older special repertories and catalogues, e. g. Codices Bavarici, Codices iconographici etc.
- Author- and subject register for manuscripts in the form of a card catalogue
- Catalogues of initials, scribes and prior owners for a part of the manuscripts (introduced by Schmeller)
- Detailed repertories for a part of the collection of modern papers
- Alphabetised catalogue of autographs (sender index and recipient index, continued in the form of an online database for catalogue entries from 1992 onward)
- Index of editions and secondary literature for all holdings according to shelf marks
[to be consulted by means of the Research documentation database] - Photographic archive of the Department of Manuscripts (catalogue of available microfilms [ Clm, Cgm, Cod.graec., Cod.icon., other Western and Oriental mss., manuscript catalogues and Codices simulati, modern papers], flat microforms, ektachromes and small picture slides)
