A name to attach to the origins of the manuscript

Even though universities switched to paper early on (from 1350 onwards) (reusability), paper was not available everywhere. Germany, for example, had around 10 paper mills in 1450.

The idea that paper was easily available to everyone, especially in rural areas, is an illusion.
