English Books & Libraries in Munich Germanyhttp://www.berklix.com/~jhs/txt/libraries/One of Other Texts by Julian Staceyhttp://www.thebookshelf.deMunich main city library
Has an English section. So do various of the sub libraries.
Beer Gardeners on Fridays.
We occasionally bring books to give away same night. Some of
Alistair's books have moved that way. (As it's a moving
venue, no cupboard for them to go in).
Pub
A pub in Schwabing ( Twisted Bavarian, now closed ) used to
have a free English lending library, the philosophy was what
you'd normal spend on book purchase/ borrowing, you should
instead spend on food & drink at their bar :-) If you'r
interested in the concept, seek out Dori Dutton.
Prisoners Support Group
Volunteers collect books & magazines for social workers
to take on prison visits. Some can read English better than
German, even if not their native language. Their web at
14.02.2007 being worked on & empty, should be back up in
a month or so. Until then this from an organiser:
We collect English language books, either at church
on Sunday's or directly to me .... delivered to Stadelheim
a few at a time twice a month with magazines ... One of the
pastors and/or one of the social workers then distributes
them directly to the English speaking prisoners, and I get
the impression they are passed around amongst the
guys.

organiser (& edit out the .NOSPAM bit).
CD Libraries
I
read here that Garching Stadt- Bucherei has a CD lending
library, come to think of it, I think many do.
Commercial book shops .
In Schelling Str: Anglia I think is name of the deliberately
disorganised one. Newer organised one is Wordsworth I think.
Maybe Hugendubel @ Marienplatz too ?
International Presse by rail tracks in Haupt- Bahn- Hof has day old high priced newspapers, & magazines etc. |
