Subject: [MEDTEXTL] Medieval and Renaissance 
Manuscripts at the Free
Library of Philadelphia

The Rare Book Department of the Free Library of
Philadelphia is pleased to announce the launch of a
website devoted to their collections of Medieval and
Renaissance Manuscripts.

The searchable website, which is supported by a
generous grant from the Institute of Museum and
Library Services, features high-resolution images from
western European codices and fragments, dating from
the 11th to the 16th centuries. At the moment, the
website represents about a quarter of the collections,
but it will be updated every few months during the
next year until it is complete.

Until then, we invite you to explore some of our
spectacular manuscripts through the following link:

<http://libwww.library.phila.gov/medievalman/_>
(http://libwww.library.phila.gov/medievalman/
<http://libwww.library.phila.gov/medievalman/>)

The website is also accessible through the Free
Library's homepage: www.library.phila.gov
