The MEL Browse interface is provided to display the data holdings in MEL by category. It can be used to locate data in MEL without doing queries. This short Help Section is designed to describe this process.
Screen captures appear in black boxes to aid the description.
MEL data holdings are organized hierarchically by category. The top page lists the categories. Since current holdings may change in between the scheduled updates, the browse pages are a snapshot of the holdings and do not reflect the holdings at the precise moment of browsing. The top level page contains a table of categories that are hyperlinks. The table is titled MEL Holdings and the categories are obtained from the MEL Thesauri.
