''Nothing certain is known of the manuscript's whereabouts in the century or so after its completion, but in the 14th century, it came to light at Oughaval. It may have been kept in the vicarage in the intervening years.
 
''The Book of Leinster owes its present name to [[John O'Donovan (scholar)|John O'Donovan]] (bás. 1861), who coined it on account of the strong associations of its textual contents with the province of Leinster, and to [[Robert Atkinson (philologist)|Robert Atkinson]], who adopted it when he published the lithographic [[facsimile edition]].<ref name=Hellmuth />
 
''However, it is now commonly accepted that the manuscript was originally known as the ''Lebor na Nuachongbála'' (''Leabhar na Nuachongbhála'').<ref>[https://www.logainm.ie/28230.aspx An Nuachongbháil, Co. Laoise] ar logainm.ie</ref> This was established by [[R.I. Best]], who observed that several short passages from the Book of Leinster are cited in an early 17th-century manuscript written by [[Sir James Ware]] (dbás. 1666).<ref>British Library, found today under the shelfmark LondonLondain, Britishcód Library,seilf Add. MS 4821.</ref> These extracts are attributed to the "Book of Noghoval" and were written at a time when Ware stayed at [[Ballina, County Mayo|Ballina]] (Ballyna, Co. Kildare), enjoying the hospitality of [[Rory O'Moore (Irish noble)|Rory O'Moore]]. His family, the O'Moores (Ó Mhorda), had been lords of Noghoval since the early 15th century if not earlier, and it was probably with their help that he obtained access to the manuscript. The case for identification with the manuscript now known as the Book of Leinster is suggested by the connection of Rory's family to the [[Uí Chrimthainn]], coarbs of Terryglass: his grandfather had a mortgage on [[Clonenagh]], the home of Uí Chrimthainn.<ref>Best, ''The Book of Leinster'', vol 1, pp. xi–xvii.</ref>
 
''Best's suggestion is corroborated by evidence from Dublin, Royal Irish Academy MS B. iv. 2, also of the early 17th century. As [[Rudolf Thurneysen]] noted, the scribe copied several texts from the Book of Leinster, identifying his source as the "Leabhar na h-Uachongbála", presumably for ''Leabhar na Nuachongbála'' ("Book of Noughaval").<ref>Thurneysen, ''Die irische Helden- und Königsage bis zum 17. Jahrhundert'', p. 34.</ref> Third, in the 14th century, the Book of Leinster was located at [[Stradbally]] (Co. Laois), the place of a monastery known originally as ''Nuachongbáil'' "of the new settlement" (Noughaval) and later as Oughaval.<!-- <ref>Ó Concheanainn, "LL and the Date of the Reviser of LU", p. 213.</ref> Still need to read the article --><ref>Best, ''Book of Leinster'', vol. 1, p. xi-xv</ref>
