===At the Lateran=== The Lateran era began when the library moved to the [[Lateran Palace]] and lasted until the end of the 13th century and the reign of [[Pope Boniface VIII]], who died in 1303, by which time he possessed one of the most notable collections of [[illuminated manuscript]]s in Europe. However, in that year, the Lateran Palace was burnt and the collection plundered by [[Philip IV of France]].<ref name=Wiegand>{{cite book|editor-last1=Wiegand|editor-first1=Wayne A.|editor-last2=Davis|editor-first2=Donald G.|title=Encyclopedia of Library History|date=1994|publisher=Garland|location=New York|isbn=0824057872|page=653}}</ref>
