Hi there! Do you have any personal favorite works in the Met that you became familiar with in your time there?

Thanks for doing this! I'm a medieval historian turned librarian, and we used the Bayeux Tapestry as part of a big large-scale visualization project at my library. Ever since then I've been interested in the battle, and I'd love to visit some day.

I've seen some museums start to 3D scan their artifacts, which has enabled us to even print replicas out for students on 3D printers. Do you know if there's any plans to do that kind of digitization work on the Battle Abbey and Battlefield collections? Apologies if you already have and I missed it!
