Collections of archives are catalogued with different levels such as collection, section, series and item. We refer to this as the catalogue hierarchy. Your search results will include descriptions of whole Collections, Sections of a collection and Series of items as well as individual Items (documents). When you click on a hit in your hitlist overview you will be shown a summary of the collection hierarchy. At this point you will be able to open up the whole catalogue for that collection. Help text on the page will guide you.
