Fisher Digitized Manuscripts

The Fisher Library, in an effort to increase accessibility to the library's unique holdings, is providing online digital access to a number of early manuscripts from our collections. Twenty-two manuscripts, ranging from a 9th century Hebrew manuscript written in Babylonia in a very early square Babylonian or Persian hand to various 15th century manuscripts, are fully available online. While some of the manuscripts are those with significant texts, many are valued for their illumination and aesthetic appeal.

The manuscripts have been divided by date. Please visit these links to view the full and complete manuscripts:
