| Abstract | In the digital era of today, alongside traditional problems of cataloguing liturgical manuscripts, new challenges, and opportunities arise due to the multiplicity of technologies available to manuscript cataloguers (IIIF, TEI, AI). This round table seeks to identify the crucial challenges of preparing a highly detailed but accessible description of a liturgical manuscript. Furthermore, the round table serves to share experiences of the project 'Liturgica Poloniae' whose goal is to publish a descriptive catalogue of Polish liturgical manuscripts (copied until c. 1300). The meeting will enable the audience to discuss various approaches to cataloguing liturgical codices and fragments, exchange experiences, and receive insight into the newly created digital tools to map liturgical tradition, e.g., the eCLLA+ developed at the University of Regensburg. Participants include Daniel J. DiCenso (College of the Holy Cross, Massachusetts), Andrew Irving (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen), Krzysztof Nowak (Polskiej Akademii Nauk, Warszawa), and Arthur Westwell (Universität Regensburg). |
