Summary/Abstract: Medieval notated sources from Slovakia document multicultural base of scriptors and notators that were educated or came from many clerical, cultural and scholar European centres. Besides a dominant influence of archbishopric of Gran (a clerical centre of the country) on liturgical content of codices (mostly manuscripts of Bratislava chapter) and fragments from the whole region of Slovakia, close relations and effect of Czech, Austrian and on Spiš mostly Polish scriptors’ workshops can be observed on well-preserved production of notated materials. The increase of online information extremely accelerated the process of identification, processing and evaluation of fragmentary preserved manuscripts. In this regard we consider methodological solution, processing and accessing of medieval notated sources from Slovakia region in the frame of internet database of Institute of Musical Sciences of SAS – Slovak Early Music Database – Cantus Planus in Slovacia (http://cantus.sk) as preferred.
