Life

Peter Karstedt grew up in Lübeck. He attended the Katharineum in Lübeck until he graduated from high school and studied law and political science at the Universities of Kiel , Bonn , Munich and Leipzig University . In Leipzig he was in 1931 with a dissertation on official offenses for Dr. jur. utr. PhD.

He decided to do the library service and completed his practical training at the Lübeck City Library and the Leipzig University Library from 1931 to 1933 . He then worked at the Lübeck City Library, initially as a voluntary research assistant and from 1935 to 1940 as part of the inventory of German manuscripts for the German Commission of the Prussian Academy of Sciences . After the end of the Second World War he became director of the city library in 1945. He held this office until his retirement in 1971.

He tried to make up for the library's heavy war losses with an offensive acquisition policy. These were created by relocating the most valuable pieces of the old stock (28,000 volumes) to the Gröna salt mine near Bernburg (Saale) and the Plömnitz tunnels ( Preusslitz municipality , Salzlandkreis ) in Saxony-Anhalt , from where they were later looted to the Soviet Union arrived and were distributed to sub-republics. He also succeeded in interlibrary loaning around 850 books from the city library that had come to the Leipzig University Library . He succeeded in raising the city library to the rank of university library .

Peter Karstedt suggested the publication of the New Series of Publications of the Lübeck City Library and in 1953 took over the publication of the Lievland Histories from Johann Renner . The creation of the Buxtehude works directory was also based on his suggestion. He used his legal training for studies such as The procedural evidential value of the library stamp. as well as for legal philosophical publications.

His main library science work, first published in 1954, was devoted to the sociology of the library .

With his departure, the phase in which the city library became a scientific library ended . After a long discussion, it was merged with the public library to form one institution in 1971 and realigned under Klaus Bock .
