Das Gedächtnis der Nation: 100 Jahre Deutsche Nationalbibliothek

100th birthday of the German National Library Leipzig

The German National Library was founded one hundred years ago this year. It has collected everything that has been published in the German language since 1913, from pulp fiction to sheet music.

A three minute video report (in English) from German television (Deutsche Welle) takes a look at 100 years at the German National Library.
