Medieval Manuscripts Talk and Viewing at UWTSD Lampeter

The University of Wales Trinity Saint David is hosting a special open day at its Lampeter campus, giving visitors the chance to explore some of the remarkable medieval manuscripts held in the University’s Roderic Bowen Library and Archives. The event combines an open day atmosphere with a focused look at one of the University’s most distinctive collections.

The day includes two separate sessions of a talk by former UWTSD Special Collections Librarian Ruth Gooding. She will introduce a range of important items from the collections, including medieval Books of Hours, a Latin Bible manuscript and the famous Monk’s Blood Manuscript.

After the talk, attendees will also have the opportunity to view the manuscripts in person. The event is designed for anyone interested in rare books, archives and medieval history, and offers a chance to learn more about the stories behind these historic treasures.
