This bibliography is very much a work in progress. Over the last seven years it has been updated every few months. The version before you has been updated as of May, 2005. This bibliography has grown out of the study of the manuscript transmission of all works produced during the Carolingian era (defined here as Continental Europebetween 750 and 1000). As a result exegetical works of Insular origin (Irish and Anglo-Saxon) are generally passed over here. Typographical errors abound and many works have been omitted. Nevertheless, I offer this work as an experiment in scholarly communication, in the hope that this bibliography will, while demonstrating the large number and wide range of Biblical commentaries produced during the Carolingian era, encourage others to produce critical editions and study texts of uncertain authorship. Accordingly, I most heartily encourage anyone to contact me with corrections, additions and simple encouragement at the address below. While the basis of this bibliography is my examination of the manuscript catalogs of libraries around the world, I have collated my results with several printed bibliographies, especially Friedrich Stegmüller’s, Repertorium Biblicum. Manuscripts which are included in Stegmüller’s bibliography are indicated by (S) and other important bibliographies are also indicated by appropriate initials within parentheses at the end of the entry.
