The University of Birmingham, U.K. announces “A Celebration of the Mingana Collection Online” – a one-day conference celebrating the launch of the University’s Virtual Manuscript Room (VMR). The Mingana Collection of Middle Eastern (Islamic and Christian) manuscripts is the largest collection of such texts after the Vatican and the Bibliothèque Nationale in Paris. It is of national and international importance to scholars and will be the VMR’s centerpiece.
