Dissemination and publication

Frequent meetings and exchange among the partners resulted in reports of the insights, finds and discoveries to be disseminated to the scholarly and culturally interested public. Project conferences aimed at specialists on the one hand, and general dissemination in the media, on CD-ROM, and through a final exhibition on the other sustained these efforts. The exhibition which concluded the project (Sept./Oct. 2004) presented both results and methods used to a more general public. Several instances of the exhibition opened consecutively in Athens, London, Rome, Saragossa and Vienna, comprising an identical general part adapted to local requirements and supplemented with original palimpsest material of the respective libraries.

Publications presenting the results of the project range from conference proceedings and individual studies on specific Greek palimpsests to the booklet Palimpsestos summarising project results at the close of the project. Further scholarly results continue to become available since the close of the project.
