Description: ForewordAs already mentioned in the foreword to the first volume of the Findbuch der Themensammlung (Best. 7701), the Lauterbach Collection is divided into four sections. All periodically appearing print products, which could not be assigned to the topic collection, are summarized in a separate department. This department contains beside magazines and (few) newspapers also business reports, press releases, catalogs, calendars, thus everything, which appears in regular sequence (daily, weekly, monthly, annually etc.). This collection of periodicals is indexed by an alphabetical catalogue in the form of a card index and the present index. In the catalogue the periodicals are arranged alphabetically by title, whereby the first word (in the case of abbreviations the first string of characters), which appears on the top left of the title page, is decisive for the classification. Numbers, articles and connective words ("and, "or) are not taken into account in the appointment. If there are differences in the spelling of the title between the title page and the imprint, the spelling of the imprint is authoritative. nouns in the title associated with a hyphen are treated like a word, since the spelling of the hyphen is often not maintained throughout, especially in these cases. Parts of the title that do not appear in all volumes of a journal (often articles) are shown in parentheses. The next entry in the alphabetical catalogue is the subtitle. For journals with the same title, the subtitles determine the alphabetical order. If no subtitles are available, the name of the editor listed in third place is decisive. The further order of the title recording - by title, subtitle, editor - is: publisher, place of publication, frequency of publication, issues (if necessary), comments (if necessary). The title is recorded in square or pointed brackets with additions by the collector or editor, followed by a note of the years or how many issues of a journal are available per year and the signature under which they are filed. At the beginning of the indexing the existing issue numbers of a volume were listed individually. Due to the high expenditure of time, however, the indexing had to take place from the letter E - with some exceptions - in a more gathered form. the letters "LZ in the signature stand for "Sammlung Lauterbach Zeitschriften. The following digits are consecutive numbers assigned in order of distortion. Some signatures are marked with a * (LZ 8112 - 8119, LZ 8335 and 8353). These include anthologies of various newspapers and magazines from Germany, Austria, Hungary and Czechoslovakia, some from different years. Changes such as changes in publisher, location, publisher, subtitle, etc. are noted before the start of a new volume, even if they have already taken place. Only the modified parts of the title record are listed, for all other information the original record remains valid. Publications published in Germany account for by far the largest part of the periodical collection. Periodicals published abroad are listed alphabetically by country of origin, then appended, and within the individual countries they are listed alphabetically by title. The alphabetical catalogue is supplemented by an index of subjects, places, corporate bodies and persons. Under the index entries the titles of the corresponding publications are listed alphabetically, whose signature can then be determined from the alphabetical catalogue. Most are German journals, if not, the title is followed by a note in angle brackets about the country of origin (e.g. France). The corporate income index essentially comprises the publishers of journals. The editors to be determined by the title of the publication in the alphabetical catalogue (e.g. "Linotype-Post") are not listed again. Publishers are only included if the publication is a publishing programme. Corporations that are specific to certain cities (e.g. public utilities, schools) are listed in the local index under the respective city. Entries in the location index only take place if the content of the publication refers to this location. It is therefore not an index of places of publication. Cologne, 27 March 1996Beatrix Klein
