A new collaborative project ‘The Manuscripts Lab’ has just been launched. The Lab provides a virtual space for academics, students and anyone interested in the handwritten culture to share ideas, findings, and resources for teaching and research about manuscripts. It intends to embrace manuscript studies across a broad geographical and temporal spread.

The lab welcomes contributions about projects, events and jottings (short notes on new discoveries). We look forward to receiving input from members of the faculty and beyond. For more information, contact manuscriptslab@english.cam.ac.uk or Dr Orietta Da Rold.
