14

C. (CB 125-136 and 146): Miscellaneous, and D. (CB 137-145): manuscripts collected by Mr Maurenbrecher, 1933. The second collection Berg consists of romanized copies of Javanese manuscripts made by J. Soegiarto. In many cases duplicates are found in the collections of Soegiarto copies, LOr 7217-7228 and LOr 10.395- 10.777 (major collection, 50.004, coll. XXXI). This second collection Berg is marked BCB, i.e. sheaves of papers (Dutch: bundels) in portfolios, collected by C. C. Berg (see 50.025). VI. In 1952 a small collection of manuscripts originally belonging to professor Krieger was entered as a minor collection. The manuscripts are marked Kr (see 50.026). VII. In 1965 an important collection of Indonesian manuscripts, mostly Javanese and Balinese, was given on loan to the Library by the Director of the “Rijksmuseum voor Volkenkunde of Leiden. The manuscripts are marked REM: 1 Rijks Ethnographisch Museum , i.e. State Museum of Ethnography (see 50.027). The collection was partly described by Dr Juynboll in the “Catalogus van’s Rijks Museum voor Volkenkunde”, vol. VII. The Old Javanese charters engraved on copperplates, which have l>een registered in 20.030-20.080, are excluded from the loan. Some of them are on exhibit in the Museum. VIII. In 1966 professor Teeuw gave his interesting collection of copies of Javanese-Balinese and Sasak palmleaf manuscripts on loan to the Library. They were mainly made in Lombok in 1949 and 1950 (see 50.028). IX. Since 1945 the Library has acquired a number of micro-photographic copies of interesting manuscripts belonging to other libraries, mostly in European countries and in Java. They are marked FOr A (scrolls) and FOr C (fiches), see 50.029. The Library does not provide copies of these micro-copies (see 50.006). Applications should be sent direct to the librarians of the collections where the original manuscripts are kept. MINOR COLLECTIONS ELSEWHERE IN THE NETHERLANDS (50.006) Beside the Leiden University Library some other public libraries in The Netherlands contain collections of Indonesian manuscripts. As in many cases these minor collections were catalogued imperfectly or not at all, they will be described in the present book. It is hoped that thereby they will attract more attention of scholars than they did till now. The present author gratefully acknowledges the
