29 July 2024Next week, on 8th August, our friends and colleagues at Exeter Cathedral will be hosting the 2024 Annual Library Lecture. This year, the event has a distinctly medieval theme: James Willoughby, Director of the Medieval Libraries of Great Britain project, will be discussing the Cathedral’s medieval library, from the development of the earliest collections to the their dispersal half a millennium later.
The lecture will be both online (with tickets priced at £8) and in-person (at Exeter Cathedral, tickets priced at £10). More information is available on the Cathedral website.
