The British Library began to collect Samaritan manuscripts almost as soon as they became available to Western scholars, and thus has the largest collection of complete and dated manuscripts. This catalogue is based on modern codicological methodology, and provides full details of the manuscripts. It includes a short introduction to the codicology of Samaritan manuscripts in general, a description of the Samaritan manuscripts in the collection, an indication of where they have been utilized in publication by scholars and a standard detailed description of each manuscript.
