Procura-se traçar a história do processo de inventariação e arrecadação das livrarias e dos cartórios dos mais de 150 mosteiros e conventos femininos portugueses que se foram extinguindo após a legislação publicada
na terceira década do séc. XIX. O processo teve lugar entre 1887 e 1908 e foi coordenado pela Inspecção-Geral das
Bibliotecas e Arquivos. Compara-se com o processo homólogo dos seus congéneres masculinos, ocorrido imediatamente após 1834, e procura-se responder às perguntas: Quem arrecadava e como? Qual o rigor do processo? Que livros existiam e o que se lia nos conventos femininos? Abordam-se ainda as irregularidades e os descaminhos ocorridos, bem como o destino dado a outros bens móveis dos conventos femininos, designadamente, objectos artísticos, objectos litúrgicos e de culto, mobiliário e outros.
An attempt is made to describe the history of the inventory process and collection of libraries and archives of more than 150 Portuguese feminine monasteries and convents that were extinguished after the legislation published in the third decade of the 19th century. This process took place between 1887 and 1908 and was coordinated by the Portuguese General -Inspectorate of Libraries and Archives. There is a comparison with the same process occurred within their male counterparts immediately after 1834 and the paper tries to answer the following questions: Who collected and how? Was that process rigorous? Which books existed in the Nunneries and what was read? And finally, it approaches the occurred irregularities, as well as the destination of other objects, namely, art objects, liturgical and devotional objects, furniture and others.
