Receipt for return of books loaned to roger of Huntingfield, 1329, in BL MS Add. 41612, fol. 72r, printed by R.

A distinctive mark, consisting of a cross on a single or double-limbed base, occurs in Cambridge UL MS Ii.2.15; Corpus Christi College, MSS 44, 393, 416; Pembroke College, MS 308; Trinity College, MS O. 2 1; BL MS Harley 1031; Bodl. MSS Bodley 582, Rawlinson Q.f.8; the mark is usually written near the top of the outer margin of the first leaf of text. The common form of ex libris inscription, 'Iste liber pertinet ecclesie Eliensi' (s. xv) is written at the end as well as at the beginning of the manuscript.

An all-figure pressmark occurs in the Ely Cathedral copy of Historia Eliensis, Bodl. MSS Bodley 762, Laud Misc. 647, and Oxford, Balliol College, 49. Manuscripts of unknown provenance with a pressmark like this are Aberystwyth, NL, MS 735C (7.3); Cambridge, UL MS Ii. 4. 22 (6.41); Cambridge, Corpus Christi College, MSS 131 (6.21) and 397 (12.20); Oxford, Magdalen College, MS 17 + London, Westminster Abbey, MS 34/3 (19.20 in both parts).

Rejected manuscripts: MLGB recorded Cambridge, UL MS Kk. 1. 24 (Evangelia, s. viii) and dispersed leaves, now BL MSS Cotton Tib. B. v fols. 74 and 76, and Sloane 1044 fol. 2, as possibly from Ely, since Tib. B. v fol. 74, a once-blank flyleaf, has documents in English (s. x ex) that were thought to relate to Ely; but this was rejected in the Supplement on the basis that the documents related instead to Ramsey abbey.
