The Codex is now split into four unequal portions: 347 leaves in the British Library in London, 12 leaves and 14 fragments in [[St. Catherine's Monastery (Sinai)|St. Catherine's Monastery]] at Mount Sinai, 43 leaves in the Leipzig University Library, and fragments of 3 leaves in the Russian National Library in [[St Petersburg]].
In June 2005, a joint project to produce a new digital edition of the manuscript (involving all four holding libraries) and a series of other studies was announced. This will include the use of [[hyperspectral imaging]] to photograph the manuscripts to look for hidden information such as erased or faded text.<ref>[http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/4739369.stm Oldest known Bible to go online].
