Abstract

The University of Maribor Library supports educational, scientific, research and artistic activities. It is an archive library which preserves Slovenica of all types and has a special department for the collection of local information. In 2003 its collection comprised around 842,000 items. Most items hail from the humanities, the social and natural sciences and engineering, but the collection also includes some medieval manuscripts and German documents dating back to the 15th century. The library incorporates an Austrian Reading Room and a European Documentation Centre, a Music Collection, a Cartography Collection and a Small Prints Collection. The University Library of Maribor was the first library in Slovenia to engage in IT development and computerisation began as long ago as 1984. By 1985 users already had an OPAC catalogue and by 1988 the COBISS - Slovene Virtual Library system was in operation. Today the 11,529 square-metre library houses 57 computers and 16 microfilm machines, and 29 printers are available in the 240-seat reading room. The library also offers access to the publications of Elsevier Publishers, Emeral and the Web of Science, and the EIFL Direct and Science Direct databases.

Each year around 30 larger and 15 smaller exhibitions take place in the library and another 150 events in the Glazer Hall. Co-operative programmes are underway with the University Library of Bayreuth, the National Library in Prague and university libraries in Austria. The University Library of Maribor is a member of IFLA, LIBER, IATUL and ELAG, and also engages in seminars organised by the Austrian Librarian Association.
