Optical Spectroscopy of nearby type1-LINERs
  We present the highlights from our recent study of 22 local (z$<$0.025)
type-1 LINERs from the Palomar Survey, on the basis of optical long-slit
spectroscopic observations taken with TWIN/CAHA, ALFOSC/NOT and HST/STIS
(Cazzoli et al. 2018). Our goals were threefold: (a) explore the AGN- nature of
these LINERs by studying the broad (BLR-originated) H$\alpha$ component; (b)
derive a reliable interpretation for the multiple narrow components of emission
lines by studying their kinematics and ionisation mechanism (via standard
BPTs); (c) probe the neutral gas in the nuclei of these LINERs for the first
time. Hence, kinematics and fluxes of a set of emission lines, from H$\beta$ to
[SII], and the NaD doublet in absorption have been modelled and measured, after
the subtraction of the underlying light from the stellar component.
