Düsseldorf, ULB, E1 is a canon law miscellany of 146 folios written in two columns. Bischoff dated it to second half of the ninth century and based on the probationes pennae argued that it still was in Italy saec. XI; it may be the "liber canonum" in the Essen catalogue also dated saec. XI, and certainly was in Essen in the twelfth century, where it remained until 1820. The modern catalogue follows Bischoff for the date and asserts the manuscript was probably written in Rome.
According to the ULB description, it contains a small Cresconius fragment plus the Dionysio-Hadriana. However, Kéry, p. 15 following Zechiel-Eckes counted it as a copy of the Collectio Vaticana in Vat. lat. 1342 instead of the Dionysio-Hadriana.
