Visit with the Gutenberg Bible in Scheide Library
Princeton University Library's Special Collections invites you to join us in the Scheide Library for a viewing and a tour of Princeton’s copy of the Gutenberg Bible (the first bible in the West printed using moveable type).
Eric White, Scheide Librarian and Assistant University Librarian for Special Collections, Rare Books and Manuscripts, will review the history of the Gutenberg Bible and the qualities that make Princeton’s copy unique. White is also the author of "Editio princeps: A History of the Gutenberg Bible."
