Although we have visited special exhibitions at the British Library, the City Adventurers had not visited the permanent exhibition before. The British Library’s permanent exhibition showcases some of the most valuable and significant literary treasures in the world.
We headed to The Sir John Ritblat Gallery, which houses the “Treasures of the British Library” exhibition. This features over 200 treasures spanning 3,000 years of history. Among the highlights are the Magna Carta, the Gutenberg Bible, original manuscripts by William Shakespeare, Jane Austen, and the handwritten lyrics of the Beatles.
