British Library Endangered Archives Programme

The British Library Endangered Archives Programme (EAP) is a project dedicated to preserving rare and fragile historical records from around the world. It provides funding and support to help institutions, communities, and individuals digitize and safeguard documents such as manuscripts, photographs, and recordings that are at risk of deterioration or loss. By creating digital copies, the EAP ensures these valuable cultural, historical, and scholarly resources remain accessible for future generations and are protected from physical damage or decay.
