Checklist 2.0:

Checklist of Editions of Greek, Latin, Demotic, and Coptic Papyri, Ostraca, and Tablets
Founding Editors: John F. Oates and William H. Willis 

Message from Josh Sosin 

Colleagues:  I announced some time ago our intention to revive and refactor the Checklist. Please find the first steps in that effort at http://papyri.info/docs/checklist. Eventually the site will be more tightly integrated with the PN/PE. 
 The new instance differs in some ways. Section VII 'Information on Publishers' does not appear; such information is discoverable online, and we aim to embed links to WorldCat records or the like, so that users can locate volumes with relative ease. Section VIII 'List by year of publication' is also omitted. We may later be able to generate this dynamically, if there is strong demand. The appendix of 'Other citations' is likewise omitted here. This information will be integrated with citation information in the PN so that it will be discoverable by simple lookup. The most important difference is that we are now updating it fairly quickly. Special thanks here go to Robert Maxwell of BYU, who has very generously volunteered his time and careful eye. All best, josh --  Associate Professor, Classical Studies, Duke University Duke Collaboratory for Classics Computing Greek, Roman and Byzantine Studies Duke Data Bank of Documentary Papyri

Abstract
This article publishes for the first time the extant remains of a Sahidic Coptic papyrus codex containing portions of 2 Timothy 1-4 and Titus 1. The papyri are currently housed in the Univeristy of Michigan Papyrology Collection. Overlooked for nearly a century, these new papyri extend the manuscript evidence for the Sahidic text of these Deutero-Pauline epistles. The edition includes a transcription, paleographical analysis, commentary, as well as images of the fragment.

Summary:
Deir al-Surian, the famous Monastery of the Syrians in Egypt, has long been known for its unique collection of Syriac, Coptic, Arabic, and Ethiopic manuscripts. This catalogue provides detailed descriptions of 48 Syriac manuscripts (many of them composite) and the more than 180 fragments that are preserved in the Monastery today. Ranging in date from the 5th to the 18th century and with a majority of them being earlier than the 10th century, the manuscripts present us with major authors and works of the Syriac literary tradition. They include biblical texts (among them the earliest dated Gospel manuscript in any language), original Syriac compositions, and translations from Greek and (occasionally) Coptic. Several works were previously unattested. Connections with manuscripts from Deir al-Surian that are preserved in European collections (primarily the British Library) are indicated wherever relevant. Colophons and various kinds of notes by scribes, readers, owners, and occasional visitors also receive attention, thus allowing interesting glimpses into the history not only of individual manuscripts, but also of the Monastery and its library. Accompanying the catalogue is an album containing more than 300 pages of images.
