Italian term or phrase: polo biblio-museale
the field isn't really art but museums doesn't exist as a field so that's what I had to go with

The text is talking about the "Polo biblio – museale del Palazzo dell’Antico Seminario di Lecce"


some context

hanno riconosciuto nella Biblioteca Arcivescovile “Innocenziana” con l’Archivio diocesano e nel Museo d’Arte Sacra le componenti di un centro biblio-museale unitario, con sede nella storica cornice del Palazzo dell’Antico Seminario.
Il Polo Biblio-Museale ha l’obiettivo di valorizzare la fruizione culturale e turistica dei beni ecclesiastici, perseguendo il compito di trasmettere la fede e di approfondire tecnicamente e scientificamente gli itinerari turistici, spirituali, religiosi e culturali.

or just "library and museum". The word "polo" actually means nothing but is widely used in Italy to make something sound impressive.
