Collections
The main purpose of the library's stock of books and journals is to
provide a library service for students and researchers specialising in
business economics, business language, history, public administration,
political science, public health and tourism.
The library also includes literature on sociology, agriculture, fishery
plus a large collection of literature on Eastern Europe.
Five of SDUB's special collections are located in Esbjerg. These are
the collections of Julius Bomholt, Arthur Vaag, Horsens Statsskole, Asta
Jepsen and statskonsulent K. Hansen. Find out more about these collections
