At the Bodleian Rare Books with Barrett Reid-Maroney to see two of the more interesting copies of Ralph Brooke's Catalogue and Succession of the Kings...(London, 1619), one heavily annotated, the other with crests and arms in colour. #multiplecopies #Census

Another exciting copy of Ralph Brooke's Catalogue at Oxford, this time at St John's College. Christopher Hatton's copy with numerous annotations/excerpts in early sections from both printed books and manuscripts. Trying to imagine the books around the book.

An exciting discovery, of a ‘lost’ text by 17th century writer Alice Thornton, has been made by Dr Cordelia Beattie at Durham Cathedral. Read the full story here: durhamcathedral.co.uk/news/lost-manu… The University of Edinburgh
