Boston Public Library Posts Rare 15th-Century Scroll

The scroll, conserved by the Associates of the Boston Public Library and digitized by Boston College, is part of the BPL's Medieval and Early Renaissance Manuscripts Collection of Distinction.
"It is our great pleasure to share the Chronique Anonyme Universelle in its entirety and to bring viewers back to a significant time period that explores so many elements of our collective history," commented Tom Blake, Digital Projects Manager, in a statement released today. "Boston Public Library is proud of our ongoing commitment to digitize our collections and connect audiences with a breadth of items they may not see otherwise."
