Alsih2o, do you plan on archiving these threads of yours?

I've got a very bookish wizard right now, so I'll be delving into these links...

BTW, a very good printed book on the topic (medieval manuscripts), which I wish I had now, was Scribes and Scholars. I forget the author, it was one of those pelican paperbacks.
