Digitized Rylands Medieval Collection

Posted on 2009 under Medieval History | 2 Comments

Oh so very nice! Stumbled upon this very nice collection of Medieval documents at The John Rylands University Library of the University of Manchester. Apparently they have been working diligently to digitize their entire collection – some 5,500 images! Now it appears that you need to download a client viewer, and you need a user name and password to view; however, the page linked above includes these for visitors – thank you! I will spend more time reviewing this site – but dinner is served so best not to upset the cook!
