One of the most fascinating individuals in twentieth-century Dutch poetry is Maastricht-born Pierre Kemp (1886-1967). In 1956, he received the Constantijn Huygens Prize, followed in 1958 by the PC Hooft Prize. Maastricht University Library manages a large part of his personal estate. The Pierre Kemp Collection contains various objects, such as books (his private library), letters, manuscripts, radio fragments, graphic works, a Liber Amicorum (a handwritten friendship book including graphic works by renowned artists), vinyl records, a red egg decorated with a poem in gold ink, a desk, and a record collection. Part of this collection is housed in the library by the Pierre Kemp Foundation, which aims to bring Kemp's literary and graphic heritage to the attention of a wide audience. As part of the national Connected Digital Heritage program, the University Library aims to present the Pierre Kemp Collection to as broad an audience as possible in a connected, open, and enriched way.

Professor Joseph Schüngel (1844-1922) was a teacher of mathematics and physics at the Rijks HBS in 's-Hertogenbosch and director of that school from 1906-1913. He also taught at the Stedelijk Gymnasium in that town. He is known for his textbooks on physics, which were also used at the Gemeentelijke HBS in Maastricht. Several editions from his textbooks are part of Maastricht University’s Special Collections, such as Leidraad bij het onderwijs in de natuurkunde. Schüngel’s books are scarce in the Netherlands. Maastricht scientist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry Peter Debye (1884-1966) gained his first knowledge of physics from Schüngel’s books.

Maastricht University’s Special Collections hold 56 richly illustrated fairy tale books from the so-called Golden Age of Illustration, which occurred between the 1880s and the 1930s. The Golden Age of Illustration, which largely cantered in England, came about through a confluence of social and economic factors, including increased literacy, more people with expendable income, and improvements in lithography that allowed for the production of cheaper, yet higher-quality, full-color illustrated books. Maastricht University’s Golden Age of Illustration Collection belonged to Dutch graphic designer, illustrator, cartoonist, art teacher, author, book cover designer, and art collector Bernard Reith (1894-1974).

Maastricht book printing began a century after Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press around 1450. The first known printer in Maastricht was Jacob Bathen, who was active in the city from 1551-1554. Over the past 450 years, dozens of printers were active in Maastricht. Sometimes they worked individually; other times they were members of a true printer's dynasty. Think of Dufour and Roux, Leiter-Nypels and Boosten and Stols, but also Ezechiël Boucher, Hendrik Landtmeter and Fanny Bury-Lefèbvre. In the past centuries, hundreds of thousands of books must be have been printed in Maastricht. About 7,500 unique titles are preserved in the closed stacks of the Maastricht University Library, Center Céramique, the Historical Centre Limburg and the Centre for the Social History of Limburg. More than 1100 of these are part of the Special Collections of Maastricht University. The selection of books gives an impression of Maastricht's printing history. In addition, a digitised version of Brother Edgard Heynen's 1947-1948 bibliography is included.

After the discontinuation of the publication “Tribunalen in Nederland en andere na-oorlogsche rechtspraak” the case law of the Afdeling Rechtspraak was included as an appendix to the monthly journal 'Rechtsherstel' from 1 January 1951. 'Rechtsherstel' was the monthly organ of the Raad voor het Rechtsherstel, published by Drukkerij en Uitgeverij. De Hofstad N.V. This publication contains case law by the Raad voor Rechtsherstel regarding claims and applications under the decree E 100. The Council had the authority to investigate, annul, or restore legal relations that had been forcibly created or modified during the occupation, upon the request of interested parties. An integral part of the Council was the Afdeling Onroerende Goederen, responsible for examining disputes related to real estate. However, this division ceased to exist in 1959. The establishment of the Raad voor Rechtsherstel and the Besluit herstel rechtsverkeer were responses to the civil law problems that emerged as a result of the wartime occupation. The government in London determined that new measures were necessary to swiftly and effectively address these issues. The decree provided a faster alternative to regular civil proceedings, assisting individuals who had been deceived and deprived of their property or rights during the war.

Documents about the history of the Jesuits in Maastricht and the Jesuit Library.
Handwritten lecture notes from Limburg-born student Jan Willem Peeters (1862-1934). He studied physics and chemistry at the University of Amsterdam, and attended lectures from Dutch physicist Johannes Diderik van der Waals (1837-1923), known for his research into gases and liquids. Van der Waals received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1910. The lecture notes are unique. The only other known lecture notes by Van der Waals were written a few years later by W.P. Jorissen (1869-1959), but these concern the theoretical physics lectures and not experimental physics. Jorissen received his PhD from the University of Amsterdam in 1896 and became a lecturer in inorganic and physical chemistry at the University of Leiden from 1908 to 1940. Maastricht University’s Special Collections hold a second manuscript with lecture notes by Jan Willem Peeters from the same period: Scheikunde pract. Werk. Peeters would later become canon of the Cathedral Chapter and director of the Episcopal College in Roermond.

This collection includes many lavishly illustrated travel books, most of which date from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The travel books bear witness of the broad interests and the highly international orientation of the Jesuits. The books do not only address Catholic missionary zeal, but also deal with trade missions and scientific expeditions.
This collection includes travel guides and books related to tourism. The travel guide is closely connected with the emergence of modern tourism in Europe from the mid-nineteenth century onwards, when an extensive railway network came into being. The travel guide defined ‘the tourist gaze’, thus playing a major role in establishing what nowadays we consider natural and cultural heritage in Europe.
