After a yearlong stay at ACU in Special Collections, the Waynai Bible is now at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C. The Bible was donated to ACU in 1956 and has since been on exhibit in the Library. ACU and Museum of the Bible agreed to a four-year loan cycle for the world’s largest Bible, so that ACU students will see it at home in Brown Library at least once while they are enrolled at ACU. After a year on display at ACU, the Waynai Bible returns to Museum of the Bible for three years, where it represents ACU to millions of visitors in Washington, D.C.
“The Waynai Bible is an ACU landmark, and a cherished part of our Special Collections,” said Mac Ice. “Louis Waynai created it to generate interest in the Bible, and he certainly succeeded in that mission. Generations of ACU students have enjoyed it and we are pleased to partner with the Museum of the Bible to share it with millions each year.”
