Why donate?[edit]
The conservation of our historical memory may not be one of the pressing "emergencies" that dominate the headlines. Yet the loss, or the inability to consult, a unique manuscript—an irreplaceable object that can never be fully reproduced—results in a loss that is impossible to overstate: a fragment of history vanishes forever.
Our mission is to prevent the rupture in the material transmission of knowledge that has reached us through the centuries, and for which we are now responsible.
To address the vast number of unique documents in precarious condition, the APUG strongly advocated for the creation of an in-house restoration laboratory. Given the scale of the task, we need all the help we can get. Thanks to institutional grants and the generosity of individual donors, we have successfully conserved numerous codices in recent years.
The Historical Archive of the PUG approaches the valorisation of its collections as a complex, integrated process. This begins with daily preventive conservation and precise cataloguing, extends to specialised treatments for the consolidation and restoration of codices, and culminates in the digital publication of manuscripts to facilitate both scholarly research and public.
