Both Concordia and McGill, joint beneficiaries of the larger part of the collection, have collaborated to devise the best possible way of representing close to 2000 books and journals in their respective online catalogues, even though the Stern Collection itself is actually housed at McGill. Distant from Montreal by some 9000 kilometers, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem was given the “first cut” of titles from the Stern Collection; nevertheless, the Hebrew University's books are linked to the new Max Stern Book Collection website.

McGill and Concordia's holdings of the Max Stern Book Collection are housed at McGill, and catalogued in the McGill University Libraries catalogue.

To facilitate easy access to these holdings, we have created a function to allow users to browse the records from the catalogue.

However this function is not meant to replace the catalogue. For more complicated search functions, the catalogue can be used to search the Max Stern Book Collection in a more specified mode than the browse function allows. To do so, follow the links to the catalogue Advanced Search Page. To limit the results to the Max Stern Collection, choose the Expert tab and enter WCL=RBD MAX as the search statement.
