The institute that Dr. Moree currently leads is unique in the Netherlands. It basically combines all existing Dutch library types (except the national one) in one organization: various public libraries in Zeeland, the provincial library association (or POI), the academic library for Zeeland’s University College Roosevelt (in Middelburg), and the heritage library of Zeeland (rare books and manuscripts, and the Zeeland collection of books and journals).
