About

This exhibition was created by the heritage workshops of the Interuniversity Documentary Cooperation Service.

Audrey Cogoluègnes and Benjamin Sandri | Digitization-Photography Workshop Anne-Sophie Gagnal, Laury Grard, Lise Marandet, and Audrey Monet | Conservation-Restoration Workshop,
Hélène Lorblanchet, Director of the SCDI.

Committed to protecting their heritage collections, built over several centuries, the Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3 University and the University of Montpellier collaborate to commission the workshops of the Interuniversity Documentary Cooperation Service to assist them in this protection. However, we can only act with all our professional colleagues in the libraries who work with competence and dedication to the conservation and enhancement of the written and graphic heritage entrusted to them in the libraries of both universities.

We applaud their on-the-ground efforts, directly connected to researchers, readers, and the public. The quality of our exchanges and relationships is highly valuable to us, and we warmly thank them for their contributions.
