" ... indispensable pour toutes recherches sur l`imprimerie et l`édition dans les Pays-Bas méridionaux aux XVIe siècle" (Albert Labarre in Bulletin des bibliothéques de France 13,8, 1968). "B.T. is a very useful addition to the bibliography of sixteenth-century books (Herbert Reichner in Renaissance News XXII,2). "The very extensive fourth volume, with many useful indices, now lets us construct an excellent picture of the activities of printers in the Southern Netherlands. It offers all possibilities to search for works by means of various keys... With this apparatus, the catalogue offers the user services never seen in earlier short-title catalogues...` (Paul Valkema Blouw in Quaerendo 24,4,1994).
