    Donations

    The Research Library for Reformation Studies is dependent on donations and funding. In particular, it is often difficult to fund the professional restoration of works from the historical book collection and the special collections on the basic budget. Even small amounts can help us to have valuable and rare books, manuscripts and other cultural-historical testimonies restored and preserved for posterity.
