According to tradition, [the Great Library of Alexandria in Egypt was] destroyed in a fire. Depending on whose story you believe and which villain you want to blame, this fire happened anywhere from 47 BCE to 641 CE. Or perhaps the Great Library fell on hard times and gradually lost its collection over the centuries to deterioration, theft, and other unspectacular causes. In any case, it’s so thoroughly lost that no one even knows what happened to it, and with it a huge amount of ancient literature vanished.

Disaster became the impetus. Our organization’s long-delayed plans to secure a collection stored on unstable formats now had critical urgency.
