Well, nowadays they have, among other things, the "Archbishop's Academic Library" ( Erzbischhöfliche Akademische Bibliothek ) with a nice stock of old books and manuscripts. Some of these can also be viewed online via another portal. There is also a cooperation with the stock of the University of Paderborn.
