One of @theUL's greatest donors, Richard Holdsworth, died #OTD in 1649. His 10,000 books included the C10 Juvencus Gospel narrative made in #Wales (Ff.4.42), a C13 English bestiary (Kk.4.25) & a Middle English copy of #Boethius' De consolatione (Gg.4.18). All online @CamDigLib.

We have reached 2000 followers! Have this 'celebration of triumph' from one of our thirteenth-century Apocalypses, which came to us in 1715. Earlier it belonged to Cuthbert Tunstall (Bishop of @durhamcathedral), who gave us books #otd in 1528. Online here https://t.co/4OxQiEJ85n

Lovely visit from @tyndalesociety today to see some of our early printed Bibles & the @biblesociety library collections.

Jean-Jacques Rousseau was born #OTD in 1712. We have a large collection of related material, from the libraries of Ralph Leigh & Robert Wokler, including this work by Rousseau inscribed by him to d'Alambert, co-editor of the Encyclopédie with Diderot https://t.co/1uUXstcuOH
