The library picked up the pace this week with sixty-seven manuscripts digitized, fifty in a single day. Unsurprisingly, given recent weeks, the bulk of those came from the Cappella Sistine collections: forty-six from Capp.Sist with a further 13 from Capp.Sist.Diari. The remaining collections were small, three each from Cerulli.pers and Barb.lat, and one each from Comb and Ott.lat.

To the right is f.1v from Barb.lat.503, a 15th C copy of William of Perault's Liber eruditionis religiosorum. The page in question has part of the capitula, or table of contents, with each section identified by a large red or blue pilcrow

At the bottom is a line of music from f.2v of Capp.Sist.247, the Credo section of a 4-voice Mass by Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina. Though it was composed in the 16th C his music was massively popular in the Sistine chapel, and this copy was made in 1749. In this fond there are copies of Palestrina's music made up through the 19th C.
