Gift Funds Addition of the Saint John's Bible to LNDL's Collection

The Library is honored to announce the acquisition of the magnificent 7-volume Heritage Edition of the Saint John’s Bible for our permanent collection, thanks to a gift of $130,000 from Mary C. Mangione and her family in memory of her late husband Nicholas B. Mangione. For the full announcement, please see the press release issued by Loyola University Maryland.

Our newly acquired Heritage Edition will be on display at the Baltimore Basilica on Tuesday, April 5, from 7 – 9 p.m. during a Lenten celebration of Jesuit meditations, choir performances, and Benedictine chants in anticipation of the Easter holiday.
