British Library Digitised Manuscripts - Greek NT

Just launched: the British Library Digitsed Manuscripts website, with almost 300 Greek manuscripts already (and a printed GNT with marginal notes [Add MS 12080]).

So far, I noticed the following Gregory-Aland entries:

uncials
011 (G) (Harley MS 5684)
027 (R) (Add MS 17211)

minuscules:
65 (Harley MS 5776)

lectionaries:

l152 (Harley MS 5787)
l188 (Add MS 5153A/5153B)
l189 (Add MS 11840)

l324 (Add MS 22744)
l930 (Add MS 19459)
l1053 (Add MS 19392B)

further
selections from OT and NT (Add MS 10968)
facsimile transcriptions from Codex Alexandrinus (Add MS 18278)

This all is really impressive, and a big step forward for NT textual criticism!

Nevertheless, anyone who consults the Liste (e.g. at the Münster Virtual Manuscript Room) will notice that not all GNT manuscripts of the BL are there. The Liste gives 228 numbers. The future looks bright.
