Indeksacja ksiąg metrykalnych – oczekiwania a rzeczywistość. Zarys problematyki

Abstract

Indexation of record books is one of the most important tasks related to genealogical research. Proper selection of the form, as well as the use of the appropriate form of indexation are the basic activities before starting the creation of the database, which is its final result. Thanks to this, you can find information about your ancestors very quickly. Indexation is an extremely difficult and arduous work, and during it we can come across many pitfalls that may result in entering incorrect data. The development of indexation, as well as the often accompanying digitization, are extremely important activities aimed at preserving and protecting record books, as well as civil status books from destruction.
