While multiple-text manuscripts codicologically are to be considered as production units, i.e. they were originally planned and realized in order to carry more than one text, composites consist of formerly independent codicological units and were put together at a later stage with intentions that might be completely different from those of its original parts. Both sub-types of manuscripts are still sometimes called "miscellanies", a term relating to the texts only. The codicological difference is important for reconstructing why and how these manuscripts which in many cases resemble (or contain) a small library were produced and used. Contributions on the manuscript cultures of China, India, Africa, the Islamic world and European traditions lead not only to the conclusion that "one-volume libraries" have been produced in many manuscript cultures, but allow also for the identification of certain types of uses. 410 0$aStudies in manuscript cultures ;$vVolume 9.$x2365-9696 606 $aManuscripts$xHistory 606 $aTransmission of texts$xHistory 610 $aProduction and use of manuscripts. 610 $amanuscripts as artefacts, cross-cultural manuscriptology. 615 0$aManuscripts$xHistory. 615 0$aTransmission of texts$xHistory. 676 $a091 702 $aFriedrich$b Michael$f1955- 702 $aSchwarke$b Cosima 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996308799803316 996 $aOne-volume libraries$92122917 997 $aUNISA
