The Hofbibliothek Aschaffenburg (Aschaffenburg Court Library) serves to provide literature and information for the 'Bayerische Untermain' region, i.e. the independent city of Aschaffenburg and the Aschaffenburg and Mittenberg districts. Due to its location and its centuries-long affiliation with the Electorate of Mainz, its catchment area also extends to Hessen. The collection comprises more than 135,000 volumes and contains literature for the humanities, social and natural sciences as well as regional literature. The valuable, partly unique old holdings include 58 manuscripts and 162 incunabula, 30,000 volumes from the period before 1900 and special collections such as prints, pamphlets of the Reformation, autographs, maps and plans etc.

The Stadt- und Stiftsarchiv Aschaffenburg (Aschaffenburg City and Monastery Archive) is one of the oldest and largest historical archives in Lower Franconia. As a result of its holdings and Aschaffenburg's historical role, the archive also plays an important role beyond the region. The archive holdings are supplemented by an extensive regional library as a specialised scientific library. The archive and library are open to anyone who is interested – on site in the Schönborner Hof, but also increasingly digitally.
