Adopt History - Adoption Opportunities

Help the IISH to safeguard our collection for the future by adopting a piece of history from our collection. What are the opportunities?

Maintaining, preserving, and providing access to books, archives, and collections is costly – sometimes too costly for an individual to cover. More modest contributions are also very welcome! Up to € 150, you share in the costs. Your share will be accommodated in our Adoption Fund, from which the costs are covered. A contribution exceeding € 150 gives you the option to adopt a specific book or collection, which we will preserve, digitize, and make accessible with your donation.
