Notes category
MS 98 (dating from the early 13th century) is a manuscript linked to the foundation of New ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ itself. Although it predates the college by some one and a half centuries, it arrived at the college library with New ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ’s founder in the late 14th century. Donated by William of Wykeham, Bishop of Winchester and founder of New ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ, MS 98 came from a monastic context in Cambridgeshire to reside in the college’s library until the present day.
