CODEX member, Carmen Oanea, has received a CERL grant to catalogue incunabula at Blickling Hall, Norfolk.
“Blickling Estate, built in the early seventeenth century and situated a short distance away from Norwich on the edge of the market town of Aylsham, is a jewel in the National Trust’s crown. It is home to one of England’s most notable country house libraries: containing over 12,500 books, it is the biggest book collection cared for by the National Trust.”
“The Consortium of European Research Libraries (CERL) is the international focal point for the engagement with the historic printed books and manuscripts, the written heritage of Europe, represented by the collections of our members and beyond.”
Here is the announcement by the CERL Grant Committee:
“The CERL Grant Committee is very pleased to announce the conferment of six CERL Internship Grants: […]
