In the 1980s, HMML microfilmed about 700 manuscripts at five libraries in Great Britain: Durham Cathedral, Durham University, Ushaw College, Syon Abbey (now housed at Exeter University), and St. Hugh’s Charterhouse. These are collections rich with medieval manuscripts, the earliest dating to the 8th century.
