The bibliographic entries from previous print editions of Nestor (1959-2006) are searchable from this website. There are currently over 41,000 bibliographic entries and over 11,000 reviews. Additions to the database occur annually, two years from the print volume.

There is also a Nestor widget for use in Dashboard in OSX 10.4 or above.

Hints:

• This database is not case sensitive.
• Names have been entered according to the style used in the book or article. Therefore, Carl Blegen is sometimes listed as Blegen, C.W. and sometimes as Blegen, Carl W. and subauthored as C.W. Blegen. Be creative when attempting to isolate names with unique first names from common surnames. Do not include commas or other punctuation in your search as that will cause the database to search for that exact string of text, commas and all.
• Remember, you are only searching for a string of text. In order to use wildcards, use the character *. When you want to limit the return to the exact text that you supply, use the equals (=) sign. For example, searching for mycenae will return 'Mycenae', and 'Mycenaean.' To limit this to 'Mycenae', enter: =mycenae.
• For titles, make sure that you check for the subject under different languages (including different versions of site names: Troy and Troia). Please also try alternate (British and American) spellings: e.g. harbor and harbour.
• A review of the work will show up as an indented entry, underneath preceeded by "Review:". Reviews are abbreviated in the standard AJA format.
• This database is being served by using FileMaker Pro as the database, which means that you can enter complex search material in a manner that FileMaker understands. Below is a list of the most commonly used search symbols.
