Our library is a specific one for the topics One world/ “third” world and adjoining subjects. It contains mainly popular science non-fiction books of high standard. It is not an academic library.

We offer books, periodicals, teaching materials, games about thirld world aid policy, videos, slide sets, action boxes and a few sound storage media.

Because of the limited financial and storing capacity of the association, we can not provide poetry and fiction by world-famous authors. You can find them in the town library. However, we also have a few fiction books, stories and tales for children and young people. Our target group is the public at large, especially teachers and other multiplicators, pupils and students.
Unfortunately, all our materials are in German.
