The Matenadaran
Well, yesterday it was a success! We launched the Digitized Medieval Manuscripts Maps one hour ahead of schedule (it leaked through Twitter... eheh...), but we like to believe it was a lucky event, since what followed on Twitter was a feast of re-tweets and new followers. In just 48 hours, the website was visited around 3'000 times. We would like to thank all of you who have shared, liked, re-tweeted, re-tumbled, +1ed, etc. It really helped a lot and it certainly got the message out there. This blog is going to be about digitized special collections only. The Sexy Codicology Blog, instead, covers all the aspects of medieval manuscripts. As of today, there are 246 libraries and institutions on the DMMmaps. Same are very famous; others are a bit less traveled by but are, nonetheless, the keepers of fantastic treasures that are available online for everyone to be discovered.
