Abstract
At a seminar on 2 October 2023, the Committee overseeing the publication of Medieval Miscellanies from the Low Countries and the Huygens Institute presented four new digital editions of medieval miscellanies: the Vanden Stock manuscript, the Serrure manuscript, the Blauwe Schuit manuscript and the Heber-Serrure Codex. One more volume will follow. The digital volumes follow the conventions for the printed volumes. As a follow-up to Paul Wackers’ article on the history of the series and the printed volumes that appeared, in this article I discuss the digital editions: their functionality, some technical background and some reasons why the making of these editions has taken so long.
