A chronologically arranged collection containing the canons of Greek, Gallic and Spanish councils was compiled in Spain between 546 and 589, and later supplemented with conciliar canons of more recent councils up to Toledo VI (638).

It is extant in six medieval manuscripts, three of which were kept in the Biblioteca Capitolare in Novara (hence the name Novariensis). The oldest known copy (Novara, Archivio Storico Diocesano, LXXIV) dates from the eighth or the ninth century.

The collection exercised its greatest influence outside Spain undoubtedly because of the availability in following centuries of the more comprehensive Collectio Hispana. The Novariensis was used in northern Italy by the compiler of the late 9th century Collectio Anselmo dedicata.

Not to be confused with the Collectio Novariensis concilii Chalcedonensis (Vat. lat. 1322 etc.) or the Collectio Novariensis de re Eutychis, both of which are found together with the Novariensis in Novara, Archivio Storico Diocesano, XXX.
