Abstract
Funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) the Bavarian State Library in Munich/Germany functions as a reference library for the countries of East, East-Central and Southeast Europe since the early 1950s. However the beginnings of its Eastern European collection reach further back into the past. The Polonica holdings are among the most distinguished worldwide. They contain about 150 000 printed volumes, incunabula’s, old imprints, about 900 journals, e-media, microforms, maps, images etc. Since the 1990s the Bavarian State Library also supports research on Poland with numerous digital projects and services. They are bundled in the platform „Virtual Library Eastern Europe” (ViFaOst, www.vifaost.de/en/), which also includes „Eastern European Documents online” (OstDok, www.ostdok.de), a repository for open access full texts.
