Heritage Projects: The Treasures of the Archdiocese of Sherbrooke
The Mgr-Antoine-Racine Archives Center in Sherbrooke preserves and provides access to archival heritage that reflects the religious history of the archdiocese, its parishes, religious communities, and the individuals who have shaped them. The center holds a wide variety of documents including texts, photographs, maps, plans, sketches, as well as audio and audiovisual materials.
The project carried out at the Mgr-Antoine-Racine Archives Center involved the implementation of a custom storage solution using the Montel SafeRack system. This innovative installation significantly contributes to the preservation and accessibility of a rich archival heritage. As a result, it thoroughly reflects the religious history and legacy of the archdiocese, parishes, religious communities, and key historical figures.
Not only was this custom solution designed with care, but it was also meticulously planned to ensure optimal protection of a wide range of documents—from written texts to audiovisual recordings—thus safeguarding their integrity for future generations.
