Renaissance Liturgical Imprints: a Census (RELICS)

This National Endowment for the Humanities funded project serves to catalog over 8000 Catholic and Protestant liturgy books published before 1601 and held in libraries in the U.S. and Europe. Field workers have visited libraries here and abroad to survey appropriate library and archive holdings of these often rare and special materials. They then create detailed catalog records, describing valuable materials which are often unavailable to researchers. People interested in church history, religion, illuminated books and history of literature will find this an important source of information for research in Medieval and Renaissance musicology, art history and religion.

This union catalog has been developed and maintained by David Crawford, a Professor at the School of Music and the RELICS Projects team.


RELICS is not yet available over the Internet. For University of Michigan users, RELICS can be accessed through the Institutional File System (IFS) through AFS.
