Legal notice "The digitized texts and pictures of the Humboldt Project are of free use for investigation and didactic purposes, mentioning the source from where they were obtained. For commercial or editorial uses of any kind, those interested must request authorization from the institution that owns the work." FCOHC and MPIWG (2003)

The digitized works by Proyecto Humboldt appear in two layouts: LiSe and digilib.
The LiSe layout has a general index of the work in its left frame and the images in two sizes. The size of the image can be changed by clicking on it.
The digilib layout does not have a general index of the work, but a bigger image size than in the LiSe layout can be obtained using the utilities frame on the right.
In both cases the work will open in an independent window of the browser.
