The main library of the city of Chartres housing the medieval manuscripts, or what is left of them, since 2007 is called the Médiathèque l'Apostrophe. The Wiki retains the traditional abbreviation as BM for the lemmata of all manuscript articles.

The Bibliothèque municipale of Chartres in 1944 was largely destroyed after an airraid on the city. Many of the more than 500 medieval manuscripts once in the municipal library were lost forever. However, fragments of some 300 codices were preserved by the IRHT. More recently, a large project aimed at the reconstruction of the lost manuscripts, including the digitization of all the fragments (https://chartres.irht.cnrs.fr/fr).

The manuscripts have been catalogued in 1840; the CGM catalogue of 1890 introduced new numbers that are still used today. However, while the CGM numbers alone are commonly used, combinations of both numbers are likewise found. For example, the Chartrain Burchard copy is cited as "161 (154)" not only by CGM (here) but also by the IRHT (here, here and here); the CCFr (here) cites it as "No 161", with 154 as "autre cote"; Biblissima has it as "Ms. 161" with "161 (154)" as alternative designation (here).

To avoid all ambiguity, and in line with how we treat similar cases, the Clavis Wiki uses the 1840 numbers with the CGM numbers clearly marked as CGM numbers in brackets for the lemma of all Chartrain manuscripts; the Burchard copy thus is cited as "Chartres, BM, 154 (CGM 161)".

There are 15 articles on this Wiki on manuscripts which are held by Chartres, BM; see Category:Manuscript in Chartres, BM.
