It has been announced that Exeter Cathedral’s Canon Librarian, Ann Barwood BEM, has been appointed an Honorary Associate Research Fellow in the College of Humanities at the University of Exeter.
The appointment, which is effective from 1st January 2018, is in recognition of her efforts to strengthen relationships between the University and the Cathedral.
Recent collaborations have included the ‘digitisation’ of the Exeter Book and part of the collection of medieval wax votive figures from the tomb of Bishop Edmund Lacy.
In addition, the Cathedral is providing access to the Library and Archive collections for lecturers and students and continuing to work towards improving public access to the Exeter Book.
