About the German Language & Literature Collection
Consists of approximately 15,000 books and 31 active periodical subscriptions as well as many more books and periodicals in related fields. The collection includes resources on German language, literature, foreign language pedagogy, and intellectual history and culture of Germanic speaking countries.
Note:
The books count was calculated by combining the title count from relevant
PD, PF, PN821-840, PN2640-2658 and PT Library of Congress Classification
areas. The figures are based on the 1997 North American Title Count, University
of Hawaii at Manoa Library and on shelf-inch measurements. The periodicals
count was calculated for these call areas by using a digital file of UHM
periodicals.
