#Medievalists, we know what you want. And while we are NOT saying that the EFL had ANYTHING to do with the digital manuscript restoration by @BLMedieval the week before Cambridge term starts, it *IS* a very happy coincidence and we think you should know about it. 💻📜🕯️📚
The first 1000 of our digitised manuscripts have now returned and are available to view online. They include over 600 Ancient, Medieval and Early Modern items, from the Sherborne Missal and the Amherst Manuscript to the Eadui Psalter! blogs.bl.uk/digitisedmanuscr…
