Abstract

The Pernkopf Atlas of Anatomy consists of anatomical drawings created by Austrian physician Eduard Pernkopf, an active member of the Nazi Party during World War II. While the book was known for its highly detailed anatomical drawings, in the 1990s it was determined that Holocaust victims were likely used as subjects for the drawings. Using a survey, the authors aimed to gather information about the presence of this monograph in academic libraries today to provide best practice recommendations for academic libraries in their approach to ethically questionable materials.

《Pernkopf解剖学图集》由奥地利医生爱德华·Pernkopf绘制的解剖图组成，他是二战期间纳粹党的活跃成员。虽然这本书以其非常详细的解剖图而闻名，但在20世纪90年代，人们确定大屠杀受害者可能被用作这些图的主题。通过一项调查，作者旨在收集有关该专著在当今学术图书馆中的存在的信息，为学术图书馆在处理伦理问题材料方面提供最佳实践建议。
