The ancient books of the Custody of the Holy Land: a treasure that will soon be online

250,000 is the number of photographs that are needed not so much to remember the past with nostalgia, but rather to ensure a future for the books kept on these increasingly technological shelves: these are the more than a thousand ancient volumes that can be found in the General Library of the Custody of the Holy Land in Jerusalem.
