The ongoing Minor Manuscript Collections project is part of a long-term effort by the Leipzig manuscript centre to explore and catalogue minor medieval and early modern manuscript holdings beyond major academic collections. These isolated manuscript holdings are of particular interest for scholarship, since their existence is often scarcely known to researchers and their contents have not yet been catalogued. Therefore, their systematic cataloguing unearths considerable amounts of hitherto unknown source material for medieval studies and makes these manuscripts accessible to scholars, often for the first time ever. The project brings together eleven institutions that own medieval manuscripts, and seeks to catalogue their holdings according to the DFG guidelines for manuscript cataloguing. The participating institutions are: (1) Cathedral Library of St Peter in Bautzen (2) Protestant preacher community Erfurt (3) Andreas Möller Library, Geschwister Scholl Gymnasium Freiberg (4) German Museum of Books and Writing, German National Library in Leipzig (5) National Archive of Saxony in Leipzig (6) Cistercian Abbey St Marienthal (7) Meißen Municipal archive (8) Cultural-historical Museum, Castle Merseburg (9) Mühlhausen Municipal archive (10) Stralsund Municipal archive (11) Zeitz Cathedral Library. During the six years of its proposed duration, the project intends to catalogue 245 shelf mark items. During the first phase of the project, the UBL has made a start on digitizing the manuscript holdings involved in the project. Actually, the UBL together with other project partner will re-new this commitment and continue carry out further digitization work. During the project, researchers will have continuous access to the project results as they appear. All relevant catalogue data will be made available through the German online manuscript catalogue Manuscripta Mediaevalia and later the new manuscript portal, while all references for watermarks produced during the project work will be published through the Watermark Database (WZIS). As conclusion to the project, the participating institutions plan to publish a catalogue containing all project results, additional information, as well as an introduction to the histories of the collections and indices. The project is currently in its 2nd phase and, after processing a large part of the manuscripts, has already led to numerous new findings and conclusions. The additional continuation proposal presented here serves to successfully complete the project by compensating for additional financial and time expenditures resulting from especially Corona delays and new manuscript discoveries.

正在进行的次要手稿收藏项目是莱比锡手稿中心长期努力的一部分，目的是探索和编目主要学术收藏以外的次要中世纪和早期现代手稿收藏。这些孤立的手稿收藏对学术特别感兴趣，因为研究人员通常几乎不知道它们的存在，而且它们的内容还没有被编目。因此，他们的系统编目为中世纪研究发掘了大量迄今不为人知的原始材料，并使学者们能够接触到这些手稿，通常是有史以来第一次。该项目汇集了拥有中世纪手稿的11个机构，并试图根据DFG的手稿编目指南对其持有的手稿进行编目。参与的机构有：(1)包岑圣彼得大教堂图书馆(2)新教传教士社区埃尔福特(3)Andreas Möler图书馆，Geschwister Scholl Gymnasium Freiberg(4)德国图书和写作博物馆，德国莱比锡国家图书馆(5)莱比锡萨克森国家档案馆(6)Cistercian Abbey St Marienthal(7)梅昂市政档案馆(8)默塞堡城堡文化历史博物馆(9)Mühlhausen市档案馆(10)Stralsund市档案馆(11)Zethedral图书馆。在拟议的六年期间，该项目打算对245件有货架标记的物品编目。在该项目的第一阶段，图书馆已经开始对该项目所涉及的手稿进行数字化。事实上，UBL将与其他项目合作伙伴一起重新履行这一承诺，并继续开展进一步的数字化工作。在项目期间，研究人员将可以在项目结果出现时连续访问它们。所有相关目录数据将通过德国在线手稿目录Manuscripta Mediavalia和后来的新手稿门户网站提供，而项目工作期间产生的所有水印参考资料将通过水印数据库(WZIS)发布。作为该项目的结束语，参与机构计划出版一份目录，其中载有所有项目成果、更多信息以及对收藏和索引历史的介绍。该项目目前处于第二阶段，在处理了大部分手稿后，已经产生了许多新的发现和结论。此处提出的额外续订提案旨在通过补偿特别是CORONA延迟和新手稿发现而产生的额外财务和时间支出，成功地完成该项目。
