Robbins Library Digital Projects Announcement: We are currently working on a large-scale migration of the Robbins Library Digital Projects to a new platform. This migration affects The Camelot Project, The Robin Hood Project, The Crusades Project, The Cinderella Bibliography, and Visualizing Chaucer.

While these resources will remain accessible during the course of migration, they will be static, with reduced functionality. They will not be updated during this time. We anticipate the migration project to be complete by Summer 2025. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us directly at robbins@ur.rochester.edu. We appreciate your understanding and patience.

"She raised her oblong lute and smote some chords"

by: Eric Pape (Artist) from: Lyrics and Old World Idylls (P. 124 - 125) -  1907

"He [Accolon] bowed and wept into his hands; and she [Morgane],
Sorrowing beheld.  Then, resting at her knee,
Raised slow her oblong lute and smote some chords." (Cawein's "Accolon of Gaul," p. 230)
