Digital Scanning: A New Look at the future of Manuscript studies

Although microfilm has been a standard tool of manuscript photographing since 1950, digital scanning has recently revolutionized manuscript researches, providing easier and more economic access to the manuscript-pictures of higher quality. Similarly, the modern digital scanning technologies, such as the multi track scanning, have increased the legibility of damaged manuscripts to a level much higher than the norma) films. For example, this modern technology has shown a good capability in the manuscript researches based on the important texts such as the Codex Sinaiticus and the Herculaneum papyrus. Despite its various advantages, the digital scanning has confronted us with challenges of technology and storage.
