The ‘Specialised Information Service Benelux / Low Countries Studies’ (FID Benelux) of Münster University and State Library (ULB Münster) is one of at present 41 ‘Specialised Information Services’ (FID) funded by the German Research Foundation. Founded in 2016, the FID Benelux is designed as a one-stop provider of specialised literature and research-specific information about the culture and society of the Benelux countries as well as research supportive services. This article illustrates by means of various examples that the FID Benelux not only deals with border regions and crossing boundaries in the territorial-spatial area, but that it also focuses on the socio-spatial boundary area between scholars and research infrastructures. In this context, aspects such as (cross-border) networking with scholars, research groups and research infrastructures play just as important a role as for instance boundary spanning and knowledge exchange across organisational boundaries in the field of research data management. Last but not least, the ‘Bibliography of Benelux Borderlands Histories’, a current FID-project also dedicated to the topic of borders and boundaries, is presented.
