Shelfmark: 28
Author/Title: Biblia
Type of evidence: inferred evidence
Notes on evidence:

Perhaps visible in the inventory of 1433. The manuscript is acephalous and so the second folio cannot be verified. But it was certainly at the college by 1634, and is the sort of book unlikely to have been collected by an institution after the Reformation.

Date: s. xv
