Summary/Abstract: Stemming from Gallica and enriched by contributions from partner institutions, the France-Poland digital library provides insight into the fascinating universe of multiple and multi-secular relations between the two countries.Over 4000 digitized objects are brought together on a single platform to bear witness to historical, artistic, scientific and literary relationships. The France-Poland Digital Library is composed of four major thematic groups, divided into smaller sections. Each of these are accompanied by articles both in French and Polish to contextualize historically and culturally the selected documents. Starting with the election of Henry of Valois to the Polish throne in 1573, it goes up to Charles de Gaulle’s memorable visit in 1967.Part of the Shared Heritage collection and ranking first in terms of visit, the project is continuously enriched with new content and sections and aims to develop new partnerships.
