Our Values
Service
We want to assist others in their research projects and pursuit of discovery: scholars, students, other institutions, and the general public.
Truth
We are concerned to uncover truth about historical events, hence we are especially interested in original materials and primary sources.
Cooperation
With few historians doing research in our niche, we value cooperation, sharing, and the efficient use of limited time and resources.
Gratitude
We are indebted to and thankful for the work of other institutions, historians and scholars, and seek to give credit where credit is due.
Heritage
The Protestant movement is linked with the Albania’s struggle for freedom and independence, providing a rich heritage to value.

Excellence
We aim to serve with excellence, consistent with international standards in scholarship, archiving, and publishing.

Vision
We’re visionaries, constantly seeking new ways to inspire, inform, and serve the scholarly community and the public.
