In three modules to be held in April, May and June 2023, expert lecturers will provide theoretical and practical training on the subject of provenance research in libraries. The main focus will be on identifying of books and libraries seized as a result of Nazi persecution. The topics covered are of practical relevance to the institutions to be visited: Berlin State Library, Zentral- und Landesbibliothek Berlin (ZLB), the Library of the Freie Universität Berlin and the Akademie der Künste, Berlin.
The advanced training programme in library provenance research is aimed at employees of all library sectors with collections published prior to 1945 (academic and public libraries, specialist libraries, ecclesiastical and private libraries), employees of cultural heritage institutions which have printed material published prior to 1945 (archives, museums, research institutions), antiquarian booksellers and employees of auction houses.
