I find the Library’s talks and tours interesting and would like my granddaughters to share my love and care for books and knowledge.
Jose M Diaz de Bustamante
I have been a (most satisfied and grateful) user of the Rare Books & Music, and Manuscripts section for years, and I think that I must pay back your kindness and invaluable help.
Steve & Lindsey Cottam
We love the beautiful Northumberland Coast and all the special places associated with the early Northumbrian Christian pioneers; we regularly visit Lindisfarne and the surrounding areas. The least we could do is help the Library keep the St Cuthbert Gospel, an incomparable volume, in its care.
William Gilpin
St Cuthbert had strong connections with the North. We supported a church of this name at Kentmere and our namesake was Bernard Gilpin known as the ‘Apostle of the North’.
Thomas Bailey
My family is from the North East and the area continues to be my spiritual home. I was compelled to support the acquisition of the St Cuthbert Gospel as it feels so close to my heritage.
Isral Duke
Old texts are extremely valuable for civilization as record, influence, and as insight to those who came before us, so I support the acquisition of the St Cuthbert Gospel.
Sylvia Hargreaves
Heard about this admirable Adopt a Book scheme from a friend years ago and have adopted books for my children, both avid readers.
Zena
For over 20 years I've used the wide resources of the British Library, especially when researching. Respect!
