"This second volume in the series of Dutch Sources on South Asia c. 1600-1825 is a guide to archival sources and two-dimensional works of art scattered in Dutch repositories other than the National Archives at The Hague. It contains detailed descriptions of the materials in provincial and municipal archives, universities, libraries, museums, other public institutions and privately owned archives. Together with Volume 1, which deals with the holdings of the National Archives, it comprehensively covers a large array of sources in the Netherlands relating to more than two centuries of close Dutch contacts with the Indian subcontinent and Sri Lanka."
