The slip-index of Middle Kingdom names from the archive of Oleg D. Berlev is a crucial resource for scholars of Middle Kingdom anthroponymy and prosopography. Besides, the slips of the Berlin Wörterbuch project with attestations of personal names are accessible in the Digitized Slip Archive (DZA) under numbers 40.000.000–40.677.960. Many texts referenced in Ranke 1935a can be located through the Mappenexemplar the Berlin Wörterbuch. The working files of the Topographical Bibliography (2011–2012) are a valuable supplement to the published volumes and the online database. Increasingly many museums are making metadata and photographs of Egyptian objects accessible in online museum databases. Most of these are searchable with Egyptological Museum Search. Non-museum Egyptological research databases are listed in the Bibliography of Egyptological databases and datasets
