Warning
The general index of manuscripts contains the class marks of the manuscripts as these are mentioned in the publication Scriptorium and in the Bulletin codicologique. These class marks have been submitted to a generalized verification and standardization process. This index does not pretend to provide data on the manuscripts' origins or lineage nor on the possible update of its class marks. Its first aim is to itemize and bring together the bibliographical mentions coming from Scriptorium and/or the Bulletin codicologique and relating to the manuscripts the reader is looking for.

Instructions for use
In selecting the countries, cities and institutes of preservation the reader must respect the spelling of the scroll lists in order to standardize and optimize his search. Users must enter the details corresponding to the fields themselves. The “Country” field is optional if the town you are looking for has been correctly spelled and located. The country must be entered in French only. The “Town” must be entered in its original language. The names of the archival institutions must be entered in their original language or in their official abbreviation. In order to optimize the search, we strongly recommend you refer to the names available in the standard list of towns and archival institutions. The complete or partial classification mark of the manuscript must be entered in the ad hoc field. The form does not distinguish between upper and lower case (e.g. " a " or " A "). However, Roman and Arab numerals must be respected.
