Library of Psychoanalysis search engine
Here you will find the library’s inventory of monographs, multi-author books and journals. In addition to searching by author, title and key word, you can also use the Thematic Search function to take advantage of the library’s system of psychoanalytic classification (in German). The thematic fields, which are organized into main groups and subgroups, also correspond to the shelving of the actual library materials.
Attention regarding journals: To check if the library holds the desired year of the journal you are looking for, conduct an online catalog search using the search criteria “Wörter aus Titel” (words from title) and “Erscheinungsform Zeitschrift” (Publication Form: Journal). To obtain information regarding year or volume, click the “Bestand” (Inventory) button found at the right next to the search results.
