As printing had not been introduced and the literacy rate was very low, books were rare in medieval Europe, usually held only by royal courts or Catholic monastic communities (Kraye, <i>et al.</i> 1987).

Further evidence for this can be found in the <a href="/wiki/Pipe_rolls" title="Pipe rolls">Pipe Roll of Henry I</a>, which shows that he had received a discharge from the "murder fine" (a fine levied on all inhabitants of a certain area based on the murder of a Norman that occurred in a generally accessible field in the area)<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> levied on the community of Wiltshire in 1130,<sup id="cite_ref-poole52_24-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-poole52-24"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>24<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> though there is no other proof for this fact. There is debate about whether the Adelard who lived in Bath and who was levied with this charge really is the same Adelard of Bath, considering Adelard is a common name.
