Library ressources

The CEDF/IRIDAT, with its wealth of important collections gathered after more than 30 years, has decided, with the European Social Fund's help, to set up a Resources Centre for the benefit of lacemakers, researchers, curators, collectors and librarians.

Its library, in continual development, includes about 1.350 books on pillow lace and needle-point lace, embroidery, crochet, tatting, hemstitch, weaving, etc, and should reach 1.500 documents, once they have all been listed.

The library includes technical and historical works in both traditional and contemporary languages, including French, English, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Finnish and others.

The presentation, thanks to the Orphée software, which is used in all municipal and national libraries, should allow lacemakers to quickly obtain the work they are looking for.
