UNLOCKING THE RYLANDS
The Special Collections of the John Rylands University Library of
Manchester are an internationally-renowned scholarly resource. They
span millennia, originate from many cultures, and are written, drawn
and printed on materials which range from papyrus to plastic. For the
first time in the Library's history a comprehensive account of its
rare books, manuscripts and archives has been compiled. The Guide to
Special Collections, is now accessible to readers throughout the world
via the Web at:
http://rylibweb.man.ac.uk/data2/spcoll
It will also be published in hard-copy format from the end of
February 1999.
In addition, from 25 February 1999, the catalogues of the Library's
pre-eminent book collections will be available in electronic form
allowing Web access to our readers wherever they are based. Visit the
