History
SDUB is the result of a merger between the research libraries of the four institutions, Odense University, the Southern Denmark School of Business and Engineering and the South Jutland University Centre, which now constitute The University of Southern Denmark. The merger was effective from the 1st January 1999. In 2006 SDU merged with the Odense University College of Engineering, so that Odense Technical Library became a part of SDUB. The Business School Centre in Slagelse was incorporated into the University of Southern Denmark in the beginning of 2007 and its library became the fifth campus library.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“America is, therefore the land of the future, where, in the ages that lie before us, the burden of the World’s history shall reveal itself. It is a land of desire for all those who are weary of the historical lumber-room of Old Europe.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
“Throughout the history of commercial life nobody has ever quite liked the commission man. His function is too vague, his presence always seems one too many, his profit looks too easy, and even when you admit that he has a necessary function, you feel that this function is, as it were, a personification of something that in an ethical society would not need to exist. If people could deal with one another honestly, they would not need agents.”
—Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)
