Suggest a manuscript for e-codices
*Suggest a manuscript for e-codices (Virtual Manuscript Library of
Switzerland)
*e-codices would like to encourage collaboration with researchers in the
field of manuscript scholarship by requesting that you, our scholarly
users, suggest manuscripts that are important to your research for
possible digitization and inclusion on the e-codices website.
We would like to use this collaborative method to make 25 additional
medieval and early modern manuscripts available on e-codices during the
year 2010. The manuscripts may represent any field of study, but should
be of major significance for research in the respective fields.
Please, see:
