Collections

The library was founded by the scientist Paolo Mantegazza in 1871; it soon grew thanks to materials donated by various scientific institutes and by the Italian Society of Anthropology and Ethnology (in Italian). Since 1986 following to a specific agreement the library also holds the volumes of the Italian Society of Human Ecology.

All material acquired before 1996 is available exclusively through the card catalogue as the cataloguing process is still ongoing.

The library collection consists of:

  • 15,000 books
  • 900 journals, of which 59 with a standing subscription, with some available as e-journals. 

Special collections available online
