Asinus📖Docet Ennius So it looks like AnnotatedBooksOnline is responsible for this noble, venerable, and ancient feature. (Also, check out the long history of Sjoerd Levelt contributions.) Long live online medievalism!

Asinus📖Docet Ennius ... is slightly older and has been used more often; here’s the oldest, also from 2014. Hashtag poetics and history are fascinating; one scans better than the other, and sounds like a festival.

Another of our lovely researchers (Sam Brown) has blogged for us about her into the work of the C17 William Bedwell & his donations to Cambridge University Library. A fascinating view of how scholarship worked nearly four centuries ago. specialcollections-blog.lib.cam.ac.uk/?p=20376 [pictured MS Hh.5.7]
