From the National Library of Scotland (www.nls.uk):
A collection of more than 240 rare medieval and early modern manuscripts has been made available online by the National Library of Scotland.
Most of the manuscripts, which can be accessed on the early manuscripts website, are available online for the first time. The digitisation of the manuscripts was made possible by a generous donation from Mr Alexander Graham.
Some of the manuscripts were produced in Europe, but the Scottish
manuscripts are among the rarest in the collection. They include
religious volumes that survived what is thought to be the destruction of
over 90% of religious manuscripts during the Reformation in Scotland
(1560).
