The staff of cultural institutions are confronted with "local collections" which, under this or other names, bring together collections relating to the territory that the institution polarizes. The delimitations of these collections are as complex as those of the territories themselves: administrative space, often shifting historical boundaries, the space experienced by the inhabitants, from the neighborhood to the town, the department or the region. What do these local collections have to say about territories? How can libraries, archives or museums document territories and give them a reality? What is the relationship between literature, culture, geography and history?
