The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Founded in 1602 by Sir Thomas Bodley, it is one of the oldest libraries in Europe.
- With over 13 million printed items, it is the second-largest library in Britain after the British Library.
- Under the Legal Deposit Libraries Act 2003, it is one of six legal deposit libraries for works published in the United Kingdom, and under Irish law it is entitled to request a copy of each book published in the Republic of Ireland.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Bodleian Library article was read about 110,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 77 and blocks with 85: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
How to get Bodleian Library
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
