Our Books and Their Journeys

Thu 11 November 2021 - Sun 21 November 2021

Cambridge University Library's Medieval Greek manuscripts have travelled thousands of miles and hundreds of years, shifting between people and places. As they journey from physical to digital, the library team are celebrating their life stories. They have been broken apart, remade and transformed; some survive only in fragments.

We hope the tales of survival, re-use and renewal will inspire you. Whether a book has passed down through many generations, been with you throughout your life, moved with you across borders, or even taken you on a personal journey, we would like to hear about it.

Share your book journeys through videos, short stories or photographs. These will be added together to create a digital exhibition of Books and their Journeys.
