Thread by @TeachingCodex

Next up in the #teachingcodex round table is @MatthewHolford, Tolkien Curator of Medieval Manuscripts

Large part of role is facilitating teaching by others, but also teaching aspects which aren't covered in formal faculty curriculum

First question: who gets to come into the Bodleian and see these objects? Small number of self-selecting people #teachingcodex

Should it be compulsory? What's the best way to do that? #teachingcodex

We teach with real MSS, not facsimiles. Are there occasions when facsimiles or reproductions might expose students to more questions of materiality without such intensive use of resources like library time? #teachingcodex
