Funding organisation: DFG Funding level: Personnel Running time: 2001 – 2006      Project description:   In 1997, the University and State Library of Saxony-Anhalt in Halle (ULB Halle), thanks to the support of the Volkswagen Foundation, acquired the library of the Jewish scholar Chajim Hominer (born 15.4.1920) encompassing a total of approx. 4,000 works, mostly in Hebrew script. After taking inventory of the collection, the ULB Halle began measures for the systematic array of the holdings and, with support by the DFG, started the process of the formal and subject indexation of the collection. Since 2002, the Hominer Library has been part of the Jewish Studies collection of the Education/Theology/Jewish Studies branch library of the ULB Halle. The indexed collection is now available to users of the ULB Halle as part of the branch library’s open-access-holdings. Titles from the Hominer Collection can also be requested nationally via interlibrary loan and via the document delivery service Subito (copy delivery) – materials from the Hominer Collection are further made available in accordance to the usage regulations of the ULB Halle.   Supplementary information and publications:     List of the catalogued titles
