This historically important museum, at Tervuren in Belgium, was founded in 1897. Its vast collections were largely assembled during the periods of the Congo Free State (1885 to 1908) and the Belgian Congo (1908 to 1960). It now acts as a world centre for research and knowledge dissemination on the past and present societies and the natural environments of Africa, in particular of Central Africa, to foster - among the general public and the scientific community - a better understanding of and interest in this field and, through partnerships, to make a substantial contribution towards the sustainable development of Africa.
The Museum has throughout its history published scientific findings. Many of these are still available and NHBS is proud to collaborate in bringing them to the attention of a wider audience. We have been appointed a world distributor for these remarkable documents and are therefore able to offer prompt order fulfilment.
The publications are listed under the following four headings:
Botany
Geology
Palaeontology
Zoology
