A Fortepan a huszadik századot 1990-ig dokumentáló fotográfiák elsőszámú gyűjtőhelye Magyarországon. Társadalmi jelentősége minden más hasonló gyűjteményén túlnő, mivel a fényképeket nagy felbontásban ingyenesen teszi szabadon felhasználhatóvá. Egyedülálló módon magánkezdeményezésből nőtt ki e kis költségvetéssel működő non-profit vállalkozás. A kezdeti ötezres fényképállomány a sokszorosására nőtt már és dinamikusan növekszik, ahogy egyre több intézmény és magánember ajánlja fel gyűjteményét digitalizálásra a Fortepannak. A képek többsége az egykori Magyarországot dokumentálja, de egyre növekszik a más országokban készült felvételek száma is. A Fortepan a legnagyobb olyan szabad hozzáférésű digitális fényképgyűjtemény, amely az államszocializmus időszakának kulturális ellenállásáról gazdag anyag található.

Gediminas Ilgūnas was a well-known Lithuanian writer, journalist, ethnographer and traveller. In the 1950s, he was accused of anti-Soviet activity and imprisoned. On being released from prison, he and his close friends started to organise ethnographic expeditions, collecting material about important personalities in Lithuanian national history. The collection holds various manuscripts, including documents relating to his activities in the Sąjūdis movement and his political activities as a member of the Supreme Council, short memories about the Stalinist period, and material collected for a biography of Vincas Pietaris. The collection shows the actions of a Soviet-period cultural activist who tried to collect and preserve Lithuania's past culture.

This collection addresses the 1968 demonstrations in Kosovo. It is comprised of archival documents distributed throughout different fonds of the Archives of the Republic of Kosovo. It addresses demands articulated by students, most of a political nature, which included: the creation of an Albanian language university in Pristina; designating Albanian as an official language of the government in Kosovo; self-determination for Kosovo and Albanian areas in Macedonia and Montenegro, and assigning Kosovo the status of a republic within the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY), with its own constitution. These student reactions were the first examples of open Albanian political resistance in Kosovo during the socialist regime.
