摘要:German universities' host many remarkable collections, some being of local interest only, while others are of immense academic value. In recent years, university collections have attracted considerable interest by both academics and general public. This interest has been highlighted by well-attended exhibitions and well-funded projects for the utilization of collections. A central role in this renewed interest has been played by the so-called 'new media', which provides new ways to access collections worldwide as resources for research and teaching. This paper presents an overview of current collections of German universities and introduces various projects involving digital media.
