Collections
- University collections are an integral part of research and teaching and are part of the scientific research infrastructure. At Justus Liebig University there are more than 50 collections focused on very different things. They are used for subject-specific education and continuously stimulate new research questions. JLU's collections convey tangible value and represent individual disciplines. As part of the university's institutional memory, they store its cultural heritage and embody a crucial part of its scientific history. The objects in the collection convey knowledge in a lively manner and, due to their diversity, also resonate strongly outside the university. JLU's collections therefore play an important role as intermediaries between academics and the public.
