The foundation of the company in Duisburg reaches back to the year 1981. From the very first day, we were aimed to concentrate on scientific libraries and to establish ourselves as a German library supplier focused on monographic titles.

We purchase monography, monographic series ,e-books, loose leaf collections and series from all areas of natural science, medicine, technical and engineering science including liberal arts and social science.

We supply exclusively to university libraries, institutes and college libraries and universities of applied sciences, industry libraries, libraries for research and other public libraries.

Primarily we import from Great Britain, the USA and the Netherlands. Through the Anglo-American countries, we get all worldwide available monographic titles at the original list price.

Simultaneously, we export German language literature for facilities in Europe based on the original  €  price.

Since starting the company millions of different book titles have been ordered ever more of these being so-called grey literature.
To order these successfully, we use international databanks and modern claims security systems, for which our qualified researches and claim department are responsible.
