Research on regional studies

We list the regional literature acquired by ULB Düsseldorf in our catalogue. Should you wish to search the holdings of all university libraries in North Rhine-Westphalia, we recommend searching in the hbz Union Catalogue. If you would also like to include articles in your search, then perform your search in the North Rhine-Westphalian Bibliography.

Digital reproductions

Check our Digital Collections for digital copies relating to older regional literature on the history of the Rhineland from the holdings of ULB Düsseldorf. In the Special Collections section there, you’ll find an overview either by theme or the origin of collections or libraries from ULB Düsseldorf’s holdings that have been digitalised.

Access deposit copies from the Düsseldorf administrative region in a print format newly added to ULB’s holdings here.

Electronic daily newspapers (e-papers) from the Düsseldorf administrative region published after February 2013 are stored in the e-paper catalogue.

Further research options, sources of research support

We provide important historical regional bibliographies as digital resources to identify older monographs and articles from older journals and newspapers about the Rhineland. You can also use the keyword search in the PDF files to perform searches within these digital resources. 

 

A selection of freely accessible databases containing addresses, texts, statistics and facts on the culture, history, politics and laws of North Rhine-Westphalia and the Rhineland in particular are available in the Database Information System (DBIS).
