Project Status: Ongoing
A digital catalog of over 800 manuscripts and printed books containing western liturgical texts from the Middle Ages and the early modern period, initiated, designed, and edited by the Research Group of Liturgical History (ELTE University of Budapest, Hungary).
The texts may be filtered according to liturgical uses and downloaded in .pdf format by registered users with the creation of a free account. The catalog provides an index of liturgical ceremonies with cross references in the various types of sources, and an inventory of liturgical texts. Indices of Rituals and Pontificals are coming soon and databases for Calendars and Breviaries are also forthcoming.
