Libraries in Germany
Since 1949 Tübingen University Library has been part of the German Research Association's programme for improvement of nationwide provision of literature, charged with care of works relating to the Old Orient. The University of Halle and the Regional Library have been responsible for the Near East and North Africa, previously looked after by Tübingen, since 1998. This task involves comprehensive acquisition of the relevant books published in Germany and other countries, making these available to anyone interested by way of direct or postal loan.
Other libraries specializing in oriental manuscripts and printed literature are to be found in Berlin (Staatsbibliothek Preußischer Kulturbesitz, Oriental Department) and Munich (Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Oriental Department) - and also on a smaller scale at the university libraries in Göttingen and Tübingen. The Bibliothek der Deutschen Morgenländischen Gesellschaft in Halle (Library of the German Oriental Society in Halle) and the Forschungsbibliothek Gotha (Gotha Research Library) have collections of older hand-written and printed manuscripts, including over 3,000 in oriental languages.
