Mistake/s on the catalog:
Verba is a collection of books of similar subjects whose language clasification is Spanish, when the copies of the collection the Bibliotheek owns includes both Spanish and Galician books.

“Coloquio de Lexicografía [...]”, the book I used to check if Galician was present in the collection, is classified as Spanish, when it is actually mainly in Galician, and includes texts in Galician, Spanish, Portuguese and French.
This book’s subject is also wrong, listed as Spanish language, when the it is actually language syntaxis in general
























Bibliotheek intruder

After an encounter with a mistake -confusing her mother tongue and minoritized language, galician, with its dominant oppresive language, spanish, in one specific book- in the Antwerp Universities’ catalog database, Violeta decided to dive into an investigation to assess whether there were more books in the same situation.
This website narrates her intentions, process and results as truthfully as possible.
