Arthur Paul Afghanistan Collection
The collection has over 20,000 titles in twenty-nine different languages. Although a large number of titles in the collection cover political history and literature, other disciplines are also well-represented, including:
- Economics
- Education
- Folklore
- Law
- Agriculture
- Language
- Architecture
- Music
- Geography
- Geology
In the fall of 1974, Arthur Paul donated his private collection of Afghanistan material to UNO's Center for Afghanistan Studies.
The library then acquired the collection and it later became part of what is today Criss Library Archives & Special Collections. Criss Library has made extensive efforts to add to Paul's original contribution of over 1,000 titles.
