This was not a mere dream: in spite of an international outcry, P.Bodmer 14 & 15 were sold a few months ago by the Bibliotheca Bodmeriana to a private collector, who then offered the codices to the Bibliotheca Vaticana. The rest of the Bodmer Papyri are, to the best of my knowledge, still safely in Cologny/Geneva.

Did I dream it or was the Bodmer papyri up for sale and if so does anyone know 
what happened to them? Also does anyone know if Codex Vaticanus will be on 
display whilst the Vatican Library is renovated?
Thanks and best wishes,
Don
