This is amazing news for everyone interested in historical 16th century German dress (and later). Jutta Zander-Seidel’s book Textiler Hausrat: Kleidung und Haustextilien in Nürnberg von 1500-1650, which was impossible to get hold of (believe me, I tried) was digitised by the Universitäts Bibliothek Heidelberg in June and uploaded to their ART-Dok server (Digital Repository Art History).
It is freely available for PDF download in two parts:

This is not the only publication to download. They have 21 by Jutta Zander-Seidel: http://archiv.ub.uni-heidelberg.de/artdok/view/schriftenreihen/sr-44.html
Take a look at their list in the ‘Decorative Arts‘ for example, or at the list of ‘Nürnberg, Germanisches Nationalmuseum‘.
has this been translated to any language other than german?
I don’t think so. I’m certainly not aware of any translation.
