Codex LANGUAGE SCHOOL EXPLORER |
 | | The codex was an improvement upon the scroll, which it gradually replaced, first in the West, and much later in Asia. |
 | | From the fourth century, when the codex gained wide acceptance, to the Carolingian Renaissance in the eighth century, many works that were not converted from scroll to codex were lost to posterity. |
 | | The codex also made it easier to organize documents in a library because it had a stable spine on which the title of the book could be written. |
