Illuminated Manuscripts on my Tablet!

(x-posted to NOLA Linux)

A page from the illuminated manuscript "Coronation Order of Charles V"

via a tweet from @2NerdyHistGirls, I discovered this fantastic app from the British Library:

Illuminated manuscripts from between 800 and 1500 are available to peruse, admire and zoom in on thanks to a new App launched by the British Library.

The app has been created to coincide with an exhibition at the library called Royal Manuscripts: The Genius of Illumination, which will open on 11 November.

There are iPad and Android versions of the app, which is not free (Android=£2.49, iPad=£3.99).

I hope I can get back to London to see the exhibition in person, but in the meantime, what a great resource!
