Overview
From its website
The Flag Heritage Foundation preserves and protects scholarly collections of flag books and flag- and symbol-related documentation, ensuring they remain intact and accessible to researchers. Through its Collection Preservation Program, the Foundation acquires remainder interests in private collections and transfers them to permanent institutions such as museums and university libraries, never selling for profit. It also publishes and distributes scholarly works on flags, such as the English translation of Odette Roy Fombrun's 'History of the Haitian Flag of Independence,' made freely available online. The Foundation operates a Cataloguing Support Program and maintains the Signa Mundi index of flag dossiers, furthering its educational mission.
