The Ukrainian Scientific Institute (Ukrainische Wissenschaftliche Institut or UWI) was the central research centre for the Ukrainian émigré community in Germany between 1926 and 1945. At its height, Its library was the largest collection of specialist literature on Ukraine anywhere, but its contents was scattered during the war: in retrospect it serves as an example of how the Nazi regime controlled academic institutions in order to promote its own political interests.
