As a comment to that article references: it’s certainly a great story, but it makes it seem that this is the catalogue of the library, when in fact it is one of 16 volumes, 14 of which are already known.
The referenced page at The Arnamagnæan Institute stays:
“There were 16 volumes of indices in all; 14 of these are in the Biblioteca Colombina in Seville, where what remains of Colón’s library is kept. The other two were presumed missing — but now it seems that one of them wound up in the collection of Árni Magnússon.“ [1]
It’s great that this was found (and one is still missing) but perhaps not quite as profound as the article would lead one to believe.
