British Library Endangered Archives Programme
The purpose of the Endangered Archives Programme (EAP) is to secure, digitise, and make available for research endangered, pre-modern archival material from around the world. Each year, the Programme awards grants to preserve and digitise such material. Where
appropriate, the collections are transferred to a suitable local archive. The local archival partner makes digital copies of the material available in the country where the archive is located and the British Library makes these archives available on the EAP website for international access and research.
