The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz.[4] It was examined by Bandini (along with ℓ 118), Birch, and Scholz. Andrew Birch gave for it number 38.[2]

The manuscript is not cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[5]

Currently the codex is located in the Biblioteca Laurentiana (Med. Pal. 244) in Florence.[1]
