The Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana ceased it's subscription to the Index in 2005 and electronic access to the database is not available there. The copies of the Index should be consulted concerning their opening hours. It is suggested that, where possible, researchers actually visit either the Index or the copies, as information from the files can rarely be provided by mail. |
