It's fascinating and entertaining, though relatively little space is given to the significance of the biblical materials in the Genizah. <br />The web address above is correct; one simply needs to create an account (which is free) and then all the images can been viewed.<br />There is also a Genizah app: on Google Play Store just search for Cairo Genizah. The app is excellent for just checking an image quickly (provided one knows the classmark one is searching for).<br /><br />An alternative way to get a feel for the Genizah is via this Cambridge University Library website:<br />https://exhibitions.lib.cam.ac.uk/discardedhistory/<br /><br />In 2017 the UL put on a really superb exhibition of some aspects of the Genizah world.
