AnswerIn Medieval times scribes, royals and nobles were the only ones who could read and write, so anything involving writing fell to them. Mostly, they recorded events that took place involving the king, sort of like a recording of events to prove it really happened. Also, they wrote of other important events. Scribes could be hired to write anything, such as a letter. They were very important in the Medieval times and were paid well. MorePossibly the greatest amount of work scribes did was the production of Bibles in a time when there were lots of churches and no other way for a church to have a bible. Most clerics and monks could read and write, and many ordinary people, merchants and other laity could also. But the first answer is pretty much right.
