THE Master and Fellows of this College have had committed to their trust by Archbishop Parker a valuable library of Manuscripts, consisting of ancient books, chiefly obtained from the Monasteries at their dissolution, and of various letters and documents collected by the Archbishop himself, relating to the history of his own times. The society have faithfully attended to the regulations of their liberal benefactor for the preservation of these treasures, as at the present time there is not one volume. missing. By so doing they have discharged one duty imposed upon them, but they are convinced that the Archbishop's object in making them the depositories of this valuable collection was not that it should be shut up from the learned and curious, but that it should be open for their inspection, and the means of preserving and encouraging in the University and in the nation that antiquarian lore in which the Archbishop himself so much delighted, and of which he was one of the earliest and most liberal patrons in this country. Adopting his spirit, it has been the wish of the society to give every facility to those who may have occasion to consult their library, and they trust that even under the strict regulations by which they are bound, no real inconvenience or difficulty has arisen to any party seeking to consult or to transcribe any of the Manuscripts. b A late Fellow of the College did good service to the cause of literature by publishing an excellent Catalogue. Mr. Nasmith devoted five years to this task, and the College undertook the expense attending the publication of the work. It has been the means of making the value of the library more generally known, and of directing many to the examination of its contents. The Volume from which the greater part of the following documents are taken is numbered cVI in Nasmith's Catalogue*. On the leaf at the beginning is written in the Archbishop's hand : Hic Liber sic consarcinatus est in gratiam eorum And its title, which is inserted at page 51, is as follows: LIBER RERUM ME MORABILIUM Et literarum achademiam Cantabrigiensem pertinentium Sexti Dei gratia Angliæ Franciæ et Hiberniæ Regis fidei defensoris et in terris Ecclesiæ Anglicana Et Hibernica post Christum Capitis Supremi secundo CANCELLARIO Ejusdem Achademiæ EDOUARDO duce Somercetiæ Dno Protectore PROCANCELLARIO Mattheo Parker PROCURATORIBUS Thoma Burman Christofero Caerleil Edmundo Gryndall Edouardo Gas coyne Ao.
