Welcome to the University of Michigan Papyrus Collection! With over 7,000 inventory numbers and more than 10,000 individual fragments, this collection is one of the largest of its type in the world. Through this site we hope to provide access to our collection, as well as to numerous other papyrological resources, for researchers, students, and the general public.
If you are new to our site, you can read about the collection. If you are just browsing, you might want to explore our online exhibits, learn about what papyrologists do, or try to read the papyri for yourself.
