Hofmeister XIX is an on-line, searchable version of the Hofmeister Monatsberichte for the years 1829-1900. Containing some 330,000 records of music publications, it is the most extensive resource for establishing what was published where and when during that period. Records are linked to facsimile images of the Monatsberichte on the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek (Austrian National Library) website.

❗️Future of Hofmeister XIX: update
As you know, the current funding for Hofmeister XIX runs out in December 2024. I'm pleased to say that discussions with a potential long-term host are at an advanced stage, but there are various technical issues that will need to be resolved. This won't be finalised by the end of December, but in the meantime the current host (King's Digital Lab) is making arrangements to maintain services into the new year. If everything goes as planned, there will be no break in service. I will write again when I have something more definite to report.
