You should go to the Vatican's web site and explore the library on line. It is fascinating and it was started way before the concept of organization was applied. To be honest, I think the Vatican doesn't really have a good idea of what it has. They have been working for quite some time to organize their possessions, but I am not sure they even know the full extent of what they have.

That's probably true, since those who had to write an index of documents didn't necessarily read them. It still doesn't explain why call it "secret." The suggests that it the Vatican is hiding something, which I don't think is the case. Why not just call it the Vatican Library?
