Welcome to the DMMapp, an independent initiative dedicated to simplifying access to digitized medieval manuscripts.
Our mission is to bring the beauty and richness of medieval manuscripts to everyone, by collecting and sharing links to libraries with digitized collections from around the world.
At the heart of the DMMapp is a deep love of history and a belief that these manuscripts belong to us all. We’re committed to openness and transparency, and we’ve built our platform on open source code to encourage others to build on and contribute to our work. Our content is available under a CC-0 license, ensuring that it remains freely accessible to all.
The DMMapp is made possible by the support of our community of donors and supporters on Patreon. With their help, we’re able to cover our hosting costs and continue developing our platform to make it even more useful and user-friendly.
We’re passionate about the work we do, and we’re always looking for ways to improve and expand our reach. If you’re interested in learning more about the DMMapp, or if you have any feedback or suggestions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We’d love to hear from you and work together to bring the beauty of medieval manuscripts to everyone.
The DMMapp is a project by Founder & Developer Giulio Menna, MA, and Co-Founder Marjolein de Vos, MA.
