The Norwegian Advertising History Collection

A collection of material relating to Norwegian advertising history is available at the main library, donated in 1989 to the Norwegian School of Marketing by Thor Bjørn Schyberg.

The collection comprises specialist books, slides of advertising posters, newspaper ads, work books and other historical material related to advertising in Norway. The collection also contains framed posters which have been displayed throughout the BI Oslo building. Some of these posters can be found in the library.
