t. 1, Bibliothèques de France et d'Israël, manuscrits de grand format: The French and Hebrew descriptions are parallel but not identical, so that for example owners are recorded in full in the Hebrew but only abbreviated in the French; certain details of the colophons are similarly treated; notes not written in Hebrew, such as previous shelfmarks or censors' marks, are only briefly recorded in the Hebrew but often given in full in the French; the description of bindings is restricted to the French. Cf. English historical review, v. 92, no. 362, p. 178.

t. 2, Bibliothèques de France et d'Israël, manuscrits de petit format jusqu'à 1470: The French notes treat mainly codicological aspects of the manuscripts while the Hebrew ones, in addition, also contain extensive historical and literary discussions. CF. Speculum, v. 57, no. 1, p. 117.
