Books, manuscripts, journals, newspapers
The library at the Centre for Modern Oriental Studies was founded
in 1992. It is closely linked to the Centre's research programme and currently holds approx. 75000 volumes and about 80 periodicals. Envisaged as an academic research library to accommodate
the Centre’s key areas of research, it focuses on procuring
new publications in the field of ethnology and political science
dealing with countries in the Middle East, Africa and South Asia. Special emphasis is given to relevance and rapid procurement,
as well as to publications from the countries concerned. In January
2013, new library stocks comprised
30200
volumes.
Apart from this regular stock, further valuable sources and rare books are contained in the
deposit library section of the Academy of Sciences of the German Democratic Republic, and in the collections of Fritz and Gertraud Steppat, African historian Jürgen Herzog, Middle East historian Gerhard Höpp, and Indologist Horst Krüger, all of which were donated to the Centre.
The mentioned collections have been acquired in the online catalogue.
Two of the specialised collections mainly affected the library stock. Approx. 10 000 monographs and 297 journals connected with Middle Eastern studies from the German and General History library section of the former Academy of Sciences of the German Democratic Republic were first of all taken over on a long-term loan. The library then received a further significant addition, the Fritz and Gertraud Steppat gift, a specialised Middle Eastern studies collection with an estimated 10 000 volumes comprising monographs and journals.
The ZMO library also inherited manuscripts from the library section of the former Academy of
Sciences of the GDR. Some of these are in Arabic, amongst others one on Islamic law:

The work was composed in 1071 hiǧrī (1660 AD) and has the shelf
mark 83/731. In addition to this identification see the colophon.
The new stock of journals includes 156 titles which are registered in the online catalogue and in the nationwide journal databank (ZDB). The current subscriptions of printed journals are listed below. Furthermore, the library subscribes to numerous electronic journals, contains over 7672 microfiches, 552 microfilms, and some video tapes respectively DVDs.
