There are three ways you can contribute to the Fund: The Library is the core of the Institute’s identity and purpose, but is also its most vulnerable asset, as it cannot generate the income needed to cover its costs. The Institute receives no public funding, so the target for the Jane Roberts Memorial Fund will be to raise enough money to cover the costs of running and maintaining the Library and Archives for years to come. In memory of Janie, we have established a special Fund to ensure the long term stability of the Library at the British Institute of Florence. Housed in splendid rooms on the piano nobile of a 16th century palazzo, with a fine view across the river Arno by Santa Trinita, the Library has the largest collection of books in English in Italy and an important Archive of papers from the English Colony at Florence in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. She was particularly committed to the preservation and development of the Institute’s magnificent heritage Library. ![]()
