Abstract
The Corpus dei Manoscritti Copti Letterari is a project whose original aim was to reconstruct the Coptic codices from the White Monastery in Upper Egypt. The project was later expanded to include all Coptic literature. In 1980 a new project was launched to transfer the data into machine-readable form and make the information available, in as generic a format as possible, to scholars throughout the world.
