Just checking, is “take down” correct? It isn’t in Linguee or WordReference. Should it be “take in”?

Bonjour Brian,
'recueillir' in this sentence does mean 'take down' as in 'writing down' what is being said in order to get 'un recueil' (= a collection of stories/poetry etc).
Reccueillir = to write down -> un recueil = a collection of stories / poetry
It is not its only meaning though.
I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
