The Rare Books and Historical Archives Department of the University of Seville Library has completed the restoration of the Hispano-Arabic Astronomy Codex, a 13th-century manuscript from the collection of the former Library of the College of Santa María de Jesús. The restoration work, carried out in collaboration with the Spanish Cultural Heritage Institute, has made it possible to recover 248 parchment folios containing marginal notes in Arabic and Latin.
The restored volume has now been added to the Historical Archive’s digital catalogue and will soon be on display in a temporary exhibition open to the public.
