Dear colleagues,
I am happy to announce that I now have images available through a Creative Commons licensing from the Manuscripts of Lichfield Cathedral website: https://lichfield.ou.edu . These images include the 9th-century St Chad Gospels and Lichfield Cathedral’s 15th-century Wycliffe New Testament. I provide two sizes of images: medium-sized (the size I normally work with) and full-sized.
For the St Chad Gospels, I include additional descriptive information in the metadata, such as chapter & verse numbers to facilitate use of the images. I will gradually add this information to the images for the Wycliffe New Testament.
Because granting a CC license represents a generosity that exceeds most publicly funded libraries and museums, I include a donatehttp://www.lichfield-cathedral.org/donate/donate link in case anyone would like to express their appreciation. Lichfield Cathedral receives no state funding.
Finally, I now have the website moved to its new home at the University of Oklahoma. You will notice that the images for download have corrected final adjustments. These images will replace those on the whole website soon.
Best, Bill
