Historia
The Library houses over 100,000 books, and includes a number of specialist collections, mediæval manuscripts, early printed books, and works by recusant Catholics. The Archive has artefacts and documents dating back to the 17th century. The building houses not only Douai’s own archives but the archives of several monasteries and religious orders, such as the Dominicans and Passionists, who have decided to make use of our purpose-built archival facilities. These facilities allow us to keep books and archives in optimal conditions both for access and long-term preservation. We have begun the painstaking task of electronically cataloguing the library and archives thanks to donations from generous benefactors. Students and scholars will find it a congenial and functional space for work.
