The Igor Cașu Collection represents above all an alternative collection of archival materials about the history of the Soviet Regime in the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic (MSSR), originating from major public archives in the Republic of Moldova that preserve such documents without granting free access to them. The founder of this collection had privileged access to the items that are now part of his collection in the short time span when he acted as vice-president of the Commission for the Study and Evaluation of the Communist Regime in Moldova in 2010. In contrast to the public archives, the Igor Cașu Collection, which also includes an oral history interviews section, is shared with fellow researchers.

Kemény István's collection

István Kemény’s collection (mostly recorded interviews) concerns sociological research on the Roma from 1971. The project analysed the problems faced by the Roma in Hungary, which was a taboo topic at the time, since it was linked to another, perhaps even more important taboo, namely poverty, which officially did not exist, but which was very real and particularly dire among many Roma communities.

Kiáltó Szó – Sándor Balázs Private Collection

The Kiáltó Szó – Balázs Sándor Private Collection in Cluj-Napoca contains the second Transylvanian Hungarian samizdat magazine issued under Ceaușescu’s regime and offers insight into the democratic resistance and the human rights struggle of the time. At the same time the samizdat is an example of the pre-1989 Hungarian–Romanian rapprochement, in which the idea of shared destiny secured a common ground for minorities and the majority alike.
