Tresoar


Tresoar is the short name for the Frysk Histoarysk en Letterkundich Sintrum in Leeuwarden.
Tresoar manages digital archives about Friesland and its literature. There is a study room open to the public, and most catalogs are online and free to access. In addition to 2-dimensional material such as photographs, scanned books and documents, there is a growing collection of multi-media objects such as film and audio material that can also be searched and accessed online.
Tresoar was created through a merger in 2002 of the Frisian Literature Museum with the Provincial Library and the National Frisian Archives. Tresoar functions as a regional historical center with a small exposition hall, and is located at Boterhoek 1, Leeuwarden.
Since 2007, all 255 editions of the Leeuwarder Courant have been digitized and placed online.
