OSORIO, María Eugenia; CAMACHO, Carmen Sofía  e  TORO TAMAYO, Luis Carlos. The Jewels of the Archive Santa Laura Montoya Upegui (Jericó 1874-Medellín 1949): History of the Recovery of its Documentary Collection. Rev. Interam. Bibliot [online]. 2020, vol.43, n.1, e7.

The aim of this article is to investigate the process of recovery, restoration and classification of the documentary collection of Laura Montoya Upegui, better known as Madre Laura. She founded the Comunidad Misionera de María Inmaculada y Santa Catalina de Sena and she was canonized in 2013. The archive houses approximately 28,000 pages written by the author, among which there are all her original works. The history of the recovery of the Archive begins in 1949, when the writer dies, and since then it has been enriching and modernizing. The organization of documents are divided into the areas that involve the intellectual profile of this saint: theology, mysticism, anthropology, missiology, literature, among others. On the other hand, the archive conserves the books of her personal library, a photographic archive and the collection of books and magazines that the missionary edited and published in her own printing press, called Santa Teresita.
