Library

 
The library of the Department of Translation and Interpreting Studies is among the best of its kind in the world. With over 3,000 books and 30 journals, it is both comprehensive and up to date. The library began with the posthumous bequests of Adam Richter, one of the founders of the department, Miriam du Nour, who taught in the department between 1990 and 1999 and interpreter Edith Ahissar.
In addition to the vast selection of books in Translation Studies, the departmental library stocks a wide array of dictionaries and reference volumes, in the variety of languages taught in the department.
