Library Gems is a web portal to fully digitised library heritage from Flemish heritage organisations.

History

It was launched by LibraryHeritage.be (then still Flanders Heritage Library consortium) in 2011 as Flandrica.be, changing its name in 2026 to Library Gems. It showcases culturally significant or aesthetically pleasing items (manuscripts, printed books, periodicals and engravings) produced in or about what is now the Flemish Region of Belgium.Steven Van Impe, "Kroniek van de Antwerpse erfgoedbibliotheken (2008–2015)", HistoriANT: Jaarboek voor Antwerpse geschiedenis, 4 (2016), pp. 175-190. It is funded by the Flemish Community. Most material included is also made available through the EU web portal for cultural heritage, Europeana.
