The project to publish Domesday was begun by the government in 1773, and the book appeared in two volumes in 1783, set in "[[record type]]" to produce a partial-[[facsimile]] of the manuscript. In 1811, a volume of indexes was added. In 1816, a supplementary volume, separately indexed, was published containing
# The ''[[Exon Domesday]]''&nbsp;– for the south-western counties
# The ''[[Ely Inquiry|Inquisitio Eliensis]]''
# The ''[[Winton Domesday|Liber Winton]]''&nbsp;– surveys of Winchester late in the 12th century.
# The ''[[Boldon Book|Boldon Buke (Book)]]''&nbsp;– a survey of the bishopric of Durham a century later than Domesday

[[Photozincography of Domesday Book|Photographic facsimiles]] of Domesday Book, for each county separately, were published in 1861–1863, also by the government. Today, Domesday Book is available in numerous editions, usually separated by county and available with other [[English local history|local history]] resources.

In 1986, the [[BBC]] released the ''[[BBC Domesday Project]],'' the results of a project to create a survey to mark the 900th anniversary of the original Domesday Book. In August 2006, the contents of Domesday went online, with an English translation of the book's Latin. Visitors to the website are able to look up a place name and see the index entry made for the manor, town, city or village. They can also, for a fee, download the relevant page.
