KTBs ended up at the German naval archives, which were captured in 1945 by the British. The Americans were allowed to make a microfilm copy of the files; copies of those microfilms are still sold by the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration. This covers about 98 percent of U-boat KTBs; a few fell through the cracks but have since been found oddly filed at…

The original KTBs were eventually returned to Germany and are now at Bundesarchiv Militärarchiv in Freiburg.

Researchers typically use NARA microfilms (or prints made from them).

Best wishes,
Michael
