The principles of cataloguing are the same as in part 1. According to the introduction, part 3 will be arranged in a similar way but the extracts from the manuscripts will be abbreviated. Part 3 will also contain a classified index of all texts described in parts 1-3. With the publication of part 3 an important tool for the study of Burmese literature will have become available. Heinz Braun and Daw Tin Tin Myint have rendered an excellent service to Burmese studies by the publications of this second part of the catalogue of Burmese manuscripts in Germany.
