In the belief that the activity of Ecosistemi must be linked to study and development and that this cannot be separated from the foundations of the scientific culture of the past - too often naively neglected - the creation of the Ancient Fund has begun, that is, the library with the collection of books concerning the agricultural, botanical, chemical sciences prior to 1830, without neglecting the subsequent texts prior to the advent of digitalization

The collection will be constantly expanded with the ambition of creating an important collection that will constitute one of the elements of study and corporate identity.
The first major volumes collected to date:
