Vatican Library Digitization Project
The Vatican Library is digitizing its ancient religious manuscripts and putting them online via its website, available for the public to view for free. The Vatican Library was founded in 1451 A.D. and holds over 80,000 manuscripts, prints, drawings, plates and incunabula (books printed prior to 1500 AD) written throughout history by people of different faiths from across the world. About 4,400 manuscripts have been digitized and are available on this website: http://digital.vatlib.it/en#toProject.
