How do you search for a manuscript? How do you choose the correct historical manuscript for study or publishing? These are initial questions that come to the minds of students or researchers who embark on their journey of dealing with Islamic-Arabic manuscripts, either for editing and publishing, studying them physically (codicology and paleography) or artistically (arts of the book), or other disciplines of scholarship. General intellectuals interested in history, classical texts and intellectual heritage, and those who want to read primary sources in their original witnesses might be interested in the same questions.
