Help us keep the stories in our collections safe 📚 Today we’re launching an appeal to raise £50,000 to fund our vital conservation work. Your support could help us care for 2,000 years of history, from scrolls saved from Herculaneum after the eruption of Vesuvius, to a 14th-century charter issued by Edward III. The first £15,000 raised will be matched, doubling any gift you make today. Donate now: https://bit.ly/BL-ConservationAppeal25 | British Library
