Using the Humboldt University Library in Berlin as an example, this article examines the laws and regulations, enacted by the Soviet Military Administration and the GDR leadership, for the removal of National Socialistic and militaristic literature from academic libraries after World War II. In addition to the procedures and the bibliographic documentation of the enforced removal, the impact of the measures on daily library operations is also analyzed. Finally, the article addresses the return of the media in the 1990s and the consequences of the the removal that are felt to the present day.
