Commissioned in 1615 by president of Parliment in Paris. Dupuis' classification is still regarded with respect, but the inventory has been partially replaced by the publication of the Layettes du trésor (four volumes, coming down to 1270; 1863-1902). Dupuis also published, with his brother Jacques, and their friend Nicolas Rigault, the History of Aug. de Thou (1620, 1626). The two brothers then bought from Rigault the post of keeper of the king's library, and drew up a catalogue of the library (Nos. 9352-9354 and 10366-10367 of the Latin collection in the Bibliothèque Nationale).

In the course of this work, Dupuis became acquainted with and copied an enormous mass of unpublished documents, which furnished him with the material for some excellent works:

Traité des droits et des libertés de l'Église gallicane, avec les preuves (1639)
Histoire de l'ordre militaire des Templiers (1654)
Histoire générale du schisme qui a été dans l'Église depuis 1378 jusqu'à 1428 (1654)
Histoire du différend entre le page Boniface VIII et le roi Philippe le Bel (1655) http://www.artic.edu/aic/collections/artwork/60
