The collection on fol. 20r–100r of Verona, BC, LXIV (62) was compiled at Verona in the second quarter of the 11th century. Peter Landau analysed the collection and the present analysis is based on his (VE). It is a small collection intended for use in the cathedral chapter and there is no sign of its having been used elsewhere. Landau has shown that copies of all of the sources were available at Verona at the time. The Veronensis consists of several blocks of texts taken from different sources. The first 95 canons, many of them dealing with judicial procedure, were taken from the shorter version of the pseudoisidorian decretals (A2). A second copy of that collection was used for pseudoisidorian decretals toward the end of the collection. Also recognizable are canons from the Epitome Hispana, the Concordia canonum of Cresconius, the Institutio canonicorum of the council of Aachen 816 and the second recension of the Regula Chrodegangi. Both of the last mentioned sources deal with the life of canons regular. Also used were the Vita Gregorii of Iohannes Diaconus and the Liber sententiarum of Isidore of Seville. Klaus Zechiel-Eckes recognized the use of several canons from the florilegium Pro causa iniustae excommunicationis, see above p. 43. The most recent formal sources are the Liber decretorum of Burchard and the treatise Collectio de ecclesiasticis officiis.
