This has been possible thanks to the transfer of the relatives of the authors, or Canyellas herself in her case, of the writers' legacies. So, The conservation and dissemination of the legacies will be in the hands of the Foundation..

The Mallorca Literary Foundation has informed that it will also incorporate documents from Blai Bonet, contributed by his family, which will join those already found in the Blai Bonet House.
