Catalogues

We recommend these catalogs for your search on library holdings in Hamburg...

...and nationwide

Please contact the library team if you need literature for which no location is listed. We can get (almost) everything via interlibrary loan.

Databases

Various databases are available for a literature search for articles, which can be used from the local networks.

Additional resources can be located using the MPG.ReNa tracking tool.

  

 

 

E-Media

The library offers access to various e-media. Please use the appropriate local reference systems.

Access to the full texts is possible through the local network. External access is possible for all employees through VPN, TravelMagic or BrowZine. Further information is available on the intranet.
     

Information on Scientific Publishing at our Institute

The institute has provided an uncomplicated internal workflow for all scientific authors. This can be viewed on our intranet.

In addition, Carola Kauhs provides support and advice on any questions that may arise, in particular on open access and its funding, research data, copyright, but also on any other problems that may come up during the publication process.

All publications from the institute are entered into the repository of the Max Planck Society (MPG.PuRe) and presented on the institute's website.

The Institute has established its own guideline on good scientific practice based on recommendations of the German Research Foundation (2019) and the Max Planck Society (2021) 

Detailed information

 

The Institute has created information on CC licenses + software licenses. Briefly and precisely, these are presented in a flyer with a focus on our subject area.
