Design libraries in Germany

View through CrossRef
Design-Bibliotheken in Deutschland definieren sich über ihren in der Regel sehr speziellen Bestand zu Themen im Produkt- und Grafik-Design. Diese Bibliotheken sind häufig in Institutionen angesiedelt, die sich in vielfältiger Weise mit Designthemen auseinandersetzen, wie z.B. Design-Zentren, Hochschulen, Museen oder als Spezialabteilungen in großen Bibliotheken. Die Verteilung der Design-Bibliotheken auf sehr unterschiedliche Einrichtungen bedeutet auch, daß ein durchaus großer Benutzerkreis angesprochen wird.Design libraries in Germany are characterized by their generally extremely specialized collections dedicated to aspects of product and graphic design. These libraries are frequently located in institutions which concern themselves with a wide range of design-related subject areas, such as design centres, universities, and museums, or else they exist as special collections in large libraries. This distribution of design libraries amongst very different institutions also means that they reach a very wide spectrum of users. Librarians working in design libraries have formed a loose network known as the Initiative der Design-Bibliotheken.
