Conference
"A two-day conference exploring the historical, ecclesiastical, literary and illustrative aspects of An Leabhar Breac which ran from Thursday 27 April – Friday 28 April 2023 in the Royal Irish Academy." Audio from this is available for free here, and might be a goldmine of additional details, for someone with the patience for audiobook material. Particular presentations of probable interest include: "Leabhar Breac Connacht and Ceallach", Ruairí Ó hUiginn; "An Leabhar Breac Scribe History and Contents", Nollaig Ó Muraíle; "Later History of the Leabhar Breac", Bernadette Cunningham and Raymond Gillespie.

One immediate salient point is that the book is now belived to have been written "at Cluain Lethan in Múscraige Tíre, in north Co. Tipperary and at other locations, between the years 1408 and 1411", while our article is just saying it was written in Duniry (which may have been one of the "other locations" but apparently not the only one). — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  14:33, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

Holohan source
The Holohan source I cited also provides an overview of scholarly consensus about the work, as of the writing in 2020 (some of which may have been superseded by the conference mentioned above):

Note: That's a block-quotation from the Holohan source, not material to just copy-paste verbatim into our article. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼  14:41, 9 October 2023 (UTC)
