I don't know whether this is relevant to this forum, but is there
interest in the question of how to get the raw material, the
manuscripts, onto the internet where we can all study them?
Now that everyone carries a digital camera around as part of their
mobile phone, it would be possible for scholars who access mss to simply
snap the pages as they work; were it not that most institutions (who
don't themselves record or place online much themselves) strictly forbid
it. Otherwise a million hands would make a lot available very quickly.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
All the best,
