Situation
The treasures it contains have to be catalogued, its major holdings digitised, and the collection as a whole made ready for its long-term secure storage at the Bibliothèque cantonale et universitaire (BCU) in Lausanne. All this is necessary if the archive is to be made accessible for scholarly research in the medium term.
