Published CANTUS Inventories and Related Articles

Some CANTUS indices have been published in book form. Although it is acknowledged that the most versatile format of these data are in their electronic form on the website or on a researcher's PC, the published versions of these inventories contain often lengthy palaeographic and/or historically-informative introductions. Several more volumes have been proposed in this series.
