Divisions
The series falls into five main divisions, Antiquitates, Diplomata, Epistolae, Leges and Scriptores; with an additional smaller division of Necrologia. Many subsidiary series have also been established, including a series of more compact volumes for school use (Scriptores in usum scholarum) and special studies (MGH Schriften).
