The Polish Biographical Archive (PAB I) with the Supplement and the Polish Biographical Archive.

A total of 430 sources in 1,185 volumes, published between the 17th century and the end of the 20th century were evaluated, and biographies on 143,710 persons were put together. The second, cumulated and enlarged edition of the Polish Biographical Index (PIB) has six volumes, providing access to an alphabetically arranged list of 280,350 biographical entries filmed on the 1,208 microfiches of the Polish Biographical Archive, the Polish Biographical Archive.
