The UBC Library recently acquired two outstanding medieval manuscripts, a “student Bible”–a rare 13th-century bible–and a private devotional book called a Book of Hours which dates back to the 15th Century. Both manuscripts have bolstered UBC Library’s medieval collections and provide valuable, real-life texts for teaching and learning. Visit the UBC Library’s Rare Books and Special Collections division, located at the Irving K. Barber Learning Centre to view these manuscripts.
