Innovation Photography Competition

Congratulations to Sarah Griffin (DPhil student in History of Art) for winning the 'In the Field' category of this year's Innovation Photography Competition.

The judges said of Sarah's entry 'We really liked the combination of the quiet atmosphere of the Bodleian with the sleek Apple MacBook and how the image nicely captures how technological advances are extremely useful for accessing old knowledge!'

Sarah said 'Manuscript digitisation has transformed how we, as modern scholars, study the Middle Ages. Oxford has a rich history, but its tradition does not limit its advancement. Humanists and computer scientists are collaborating to make new tools that make manuscripts more physically and intellectually accessible, innovating how we interpret this history.'
