A series

Sumber

Sources on Moluccan language, history and culture

Sumber was a publication series by the Moluks Historisch Museum and the Landelijk Steunpunt Educatie Molukkers, both based in Utrecht at the time. The series brought together sources on Moluccan language, history and culture: material that would otherwise have remained scattered or existed only orally.

The Landelijk Steunpunt Educatie Molukkers was housed in the museum's building complex from 1988 to 2012. That explains the shared publishing line: education and collection worked literally under one roof there.

It has not yet been established exactly which volumes in this series were published. Public library catalogues list the series as running from 1997 onwards, without a list of volumes. We will add to this page as volumes are located and verified.
