Gutenberg's invention of typography eventually revolutionized the world of text production and distribution. But the printing craft did not produce an immediate ... explosion. The first two decades of European printing have a pace of their own, and these years contain long overlooked mysteries, which stood in the shadow of such famous monuments as the Gutenberg Bible and the 1457 Mainz Psalter.

Archival material relating to the formal admission of women to the University of Oxford, including admissions records, annual reports, calendars, photographs, scrapbooks, minutes and letters.

October 2020 marked one-hundred years since women were granted the right to matriculate and therefore to take degrees at Oxford. Despite the significance of this landmark year, women had studied at the University long before 1920. In fact, they had been making their mark on the University and advocating for women's access to an Oxford education since the 1860s.

Education and Activism: Women at Oxford, 1878-1920, is a digital archive project that commemorates the centenary year by bringing together records of the former women's colleges (Lady Margaret Hall, Somerville, St Anne's, St Hilda's and St Hugh's) into a central digital archive. Through the digitization of more than 7,000 archival images, this project will change the way that we understand and research the history of higher education in Oxford, the United Kingdom and beyond.
