This museum is a non-sectarian library / research center that houses the priceless Van Kampen Collection consisting of several thousand manuscripts, scrolls, and other religious artifacts. The collection is augmented by secondary resources, including the personal library of Eberhard Nestle, leading 19th century biblical scholar and co-translator of the Greek Nestle/Aland New Testament text.
The walk-through experience of The Scriptorium transports visitors to historical and geographical areas of the world where displayed biblical documents originated and gives guests a dramatic understanding of the history of the Bible, how it parallels the history of civilization, and the impact it has had upon the world.
Additionally, specially featured items are on display in our rotating exhibit space, located off The Scriptorium's Ex Libris bookstore.
