Abstract
Thisistheeighthvolume of a projected ten reproducing all the marks and notes that Voltaire (and a few privileged members of his circle) made in the books of his last library, the collection he installed and built up at Ferney between 1758 and 1778. Upon receiving the news of his death, Catherine the Great immediately set her agents to work to secure the library intact and have it transported to the Hermitage, where even the order of shelving was replicated. This cherished set of books, later transferred to what is now the National Library in St Petersburg, is thus an exceptional example of reverential preservation—but not preservation in amber, for followers and scholars with the right credentials, granted access, were able occasionally to make use of the books for their own purposes. This scholarly edition makes widely available materials that have been known about and in some cases published, though only in a piecemeal way, for a very long time.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
