These six volumes (Cod. 87-92) were bought in 1891 by the Austrian Ministerium für Cultus und Unterricht, and were deposited in the Hofbibliothek (now the Nationalbibliothek) at Vienna. In 1920, under the terms of the Treaty of St. Germain, they were returned to Trent. The seventh codex (Codex tridentius 93) was found in the archives of the Duomo at Trent in 1920)
