Digital Library

The Archive's digital library holds digital versions of important primary literature, currently comprising mainly printed works and audio-visual media, but will ultimately include Gray's manuscripts.

Manuscripts

Gray's Commonplace Book (bound in three volumes), which he began in c. 1736 and kept until about 1761, is the most important record of his autograph writing in verse and prose. It is held at Pembroke College, Cambridge, and has been made available online in its entirety by Cambridge Digital Library.
