Clavis canonum is a database that was built by Linda Fowler-Magerl. It is essentially a canon-by-canon description of canon law collections based on one manuscript or printed edition of the respective collection. For every canon, the databased provides its position in the collection, the incipit, explicit, rubric, inscription, and some other basic information. The work was begun in the 1970s and after several earlier versions, Fowler-Magerl in 2005 published the database and a handbook in die MGH Hilfsmittel series. This version of the database was made available online in ca. 2010 on the MGH website, and currently is revised by Clemens Radl (MGH Munich), Danica Summerlin (U Sheffield), and Christof Rolker (U Bamberg). We have added new collections to the database, and update the description of the collections. To this end, we have set up the Wiki which contains individual pages for the collections and, increasingly, their manuscripts. Most content was lifted directly from the printed handbook, but gradually is added to and reworked by registered users of this Wiki.
