What would be most useful from a long time stand point is to provide scanned images of the rare documents as well as photos of artifacts of historical value. Today, fast scanners are not that expensive and so this is doable with minimal cost and effort. Not only would the materials be available instantly for anyone in the world, it would also solve the problem of preservation of rare material for posterity. There are members on this community who have the necessary expertise in scanning, indexing and uploading of materials to website. I am sure everyone would volunteer their expertise in helping in this task as has been demonstrated in the past. One has to put on the hat of theosophist to see the long term good it would do.  MY 0.02.
