Cataloguing of medieval manuscripts in minor collections in East Germany

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，旨在探索和编目次要的中世纪和早期现代手稿，而不是主要的学术收藏。这些孤立的手稿收藏是特别感兴趣的奖学金，因为他们的存在往往很少为研究人员所知，他们的内容尚未编目。因此，他们的系统编目为中世纪研究发掘了大量迄今为止未知的原始材料，并使学者们能够访问这些手稿，通常是有史以来第一次。该项目汇集了11个拥有中世纪手稿的机构，并试图根据DFG手稿编目指南对其馆藏进行编目。参与机构包括：(1)包岑圣彼得大教堂图书馆(2)新教传教士社区埃尔富特(3)Andreas Möller图书馆，Geschwister Scholl Gymnasium Freiberg(4)德国图书与写作博物馆，莱比锡德国国家图书馆(5)莱比锡萨克森国家档案馆(6)圣玛丽安塔尔西特会修道院(7)梅ßen市档案馆(8)梅瑟堡城堡文化历史博物馆(9)m<s:1> hlhausen市档案馆（10）施特拉尔松德市档案馆（11）蔡茨大教堂图书馆。在其拟议的六年期限内，该项目打算编目245个货架标志项目。在项目的第一阶段，UBL已经开始对项目中涉及的手稿馆藏进行数字化。事实上，UBL将与其他项目合作伙伴一起重申这一承诺，并继续开展进一步的数字化工作。在项目期间，研究人员可以随时看到项目结果。所有相关的目录数据将通过德国在线手稿目录Manuscripta Mediaevalia和随后的新手稿门户网站提供，而在项目工作期间产生的所有水印参考文献将通过水印数据库（WZIS）发布。作为项目的结论，参与机构计划出版一份目录，其中包括所有项目成果、附加信息以及对馆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之后，已经产生了许多新的发现和结论。这里提出的额外的延续建议是通过补偿额外的财政和时间支出来成功完成项目，特别是由于Corona延迟和新手稿的发现。

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.
