It was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Johann Jakob Wettstein.[4][5] It was examined by Mill (as Bodleianus 7) and Griesbach.[2] According to Mill this codex is Stephen's ϛ'.[3]
The manuscript is sporadically cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[6]
