Overview
Bringing Luxembourg’s heritage online
Since 2002, the National Library has been digitising Luxembourg’s printed heritage and making it available online via eluxemburgensia.lu. The portal also provides access to born-digital publications.
This work improves access to the collections, supports new approaches to research and enhances the visibility of written heritage, while helping to preserve fragile originals. It also aligns with the European Union’s objectives to make cultural heritage more widely accessible online, particularly for research and the digital humanities.
Do I need to be registered to access eluxemburgensia.lu?
No, you do not need a library card to access the content on eluxemburgensia.lu. Some digitised documents can even be downloaded as PDFs or sent by email. However, please remember that all use of these materials must comply with copyright law.
How can I search the website?
Most of the National Library’s digitised resources are available in fulltext mode, that is to say, thanks to OCR (optical character recognition), you can perform a full-text search.
In addition to searching for keywords, you can also search for specific time periods or document types on eluxemburgensia.lu. You can then refine the search by adding several keywords or using the Advanced Search function.
