Our archive library
Stand: 28.05.2024
The Erlangen City Archive maintains a specialized academic library - the archive library. The stock of approx. 50,000 media units is made up of monographs, collected works, journals, small publications and so-called "gray literature" (e.g. private prints, company publications, congress reports).
To the main page of the city archive
The main collections of our archive library are
- Literature about Erlangen and its history (Erlangensien)
- Franconian and Bavarian regional studies / regional history (Franconia and Bavarica)
- History and town planning in general
- Historical auxiliary sciences
The historically determined, decentralized arrangement of the holdings with a variety of classifications was followed by a standardized presentation according to the Regensburg Union Classification (RVK) at the reading room, seminar room and collection locations when the new archive building was occupied in 2012. Since then, the old holdings have also been successively reworked according to the RVK and integrated into the newly organized holdings.
Online catalog (OPAC)
Since autumn 2019, the archive library has been a member of the Bavarian Library Network (BVB) and thus has a publicly accessible online catalog (OPAC), which will gradually replace the card catalogs and databases (only accessible to employees of the city archive) as reference tools. In the future, it will also be possible to access the journal holdings via the online journal database (ZDB).
