Three versions of the Hengwrt Chaucer Digital facsimile are available, as follows:

The Research Edition "Hengwrt Chaucer Digital Facsimile", edited by Estelle Stubbs
The Standard Edition, edited by Ceridwen Lloyd-Morgan
The Online Edition, published on the National Library of Wales website by Scholarly Digital Editions in 2003 and accessible from the library website

Each version is designed to serve a particular set of needs. If you wish simply to check the reading of the manuscript at a particular point of the Tales, and would like to see how the manuscript appears at that point, the Online Edition will allow you to do this over the web, quickly and at no cost. If you want to carry out searches on the whole text, to examine the manuscript more closely to check the exact readings at each point, and to have all this on your computer at all times, then the Standard Edition will be appropriate. It is expected that most of those who need this will be students and general readers, and so the edition has been priced to be affordable for that audience, at around the same price as a standard hardback or paperback. If you want to explore the manuscript in the closest possible detail, examining its construction as shown through its quiring, inks, and running heads, researching its differences word-by-word with the Ellesmere manuscript, studying scholarly commentary on all this, together with more sophisticated searching and with access to images which show the smallest detail on the manuscript's surface, then you will need the Research Edition.

The following table sets out the differences between the three editions.
