The collections of Lund University Library (UB) have been acquired since
1671 through donations, purchases and legal deposits. UB obtains a legal
deposit copy of everything printed in Sweden, and the Swedish collection
consequently grows with over 700 metres every year.
An important
role of the University Library in the network of Lund University
Libraries (LUB) is being a library of cultural heritage. Cultural
heritage refers to the parts of the university collections of printed
and published documents meant to be stored for all times. The
collections cover over 100 kilometres of prints and manuscripts.
