Researching historical sources

Academics and young researchers can use our historical collections for their work. We make our holdings accessible and make them available digitally. This enables you to work comfortably with historical sources. In addition, we offer a high level of personal support.

Current projects:

• We have a considerable stock of medieval manuscript fragments, which are now being catalogued: Fragment Research in the UCL
• The Jesuit Project records provenances, information on the former location of the books and much more in the Jesuit Collection Cologne
