University Bibliography of Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg
Overview
What is the University Bibliography?
The university bibliography, as a key reference tool, indexes the academic publications of members of Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg. The bibliographic information is recorded using metadata, which is then imported into library catalogues, discovery systems such as Ha:Lit and the Research Portal of Saxony-Anhalt (German only).
What is included in the University Bibliography?
For the university bibliography, we index both independently and in collaboration with others published works from 2003 onwards. This includes monographs, collections of essays, anniversary publications, conference proceedings, journal articles, reviews, contributions to collected works, blog posts, project reports, patent and standard specifications (if published by a publishing house), as well as doctoral and postdoctoral theses written at MLU. It makes no difference whether the work was published in print or online. If a publication was released in both formats, usually only the online version is recorded. To discuss the indexing of publications published before 2003, please contact us in advance.
It is essential that the publications have been produced in connection with work carried out at MLU. We are unable to provide evidence of publications that originated outside MLU.
It is not possible to include posters and lectures (unless they have been published as a contribution in a conference proceedings), projects, term papers and final dissertations, television and radio broadcasts, or newspaper articles in the bibliography. Unpublished works may be submitted to us in advance, but they can only be included in the bibliography once they have been published. If you already know the date of publication, please include this information in your submission.
Have you completed your doctoral or postdoctoral thesis at Martin Luther University Halle-Wittenberg? For detailed information on the publication of your thesis, please visit the page of the Team Theses Publications. The entry for these works in the university bibliography is created automatically as part of the publication process.
Reporting Publications
According to Section 2(6) of the Regulations of the University and State Library of Saxony-Anhalt (German only), full-time academic and artistic staff at MLU are required to notify the ULB of their own academic publications themselves.
There are many different ways in which you can submit your new publications for inclusion in the university bibliography.
- Format: To report individual titles, use
- our web form below or
- the PDF form to print out (you can also complete the form on your computer using the „Fill in and sign“ function in Adobe Acrobat Reader).
- Email: Simply send us an email to the following address: unibibliographie@bibliothek.uni-halle.de. This is particularly useful if you have a long list. To make processing easier, we are happy to accept lists as attachments in Word or PDF format.
- Dean’s Office/Secretariat: At some MLU institutes, notification to the ULB is made via the relevant dean’s office or secretariat. Please enquire at the relevant office to find out whether this service is available.
- Subject unit: You are also welcome to notify the relevant subject units of your new publications. The staff there will then forward your notifications to the University Bibliography Team.
- Research portal: Do you have a profile on the Saxony-Anhalt Research Portal (German only)? If so, you can also add new publications yourself. For publications written whilst you were affiliated with MLU, please use the „EMP-Meldungen“ (EMP notifications) function. You can also manually add publications from outside your period of affiliation as so-called „Ergänzungen“ (additions).
Please submit details of your new works shortly after publication, preferably every six months, in order to avoid a backlog in processing (particularly in the run-up to the publication of the MLU Research Report).
