This repository contains a collection of scripts designed to update MEI 3 files to MEI 5. The current implementation of this repository only supports upgrading MEI files from the Liber Usualis. Future developments may extend this functionality to support additional MEI files.
- If you do not have it already, install lxml 5.0 using
pip install lxml==5.0
- Clone the repository and move the scripts in this repository into the same directory as your MEI files
- Run the
liberbatch.py
script
This will update the Liber Usualis files from MEI 3 to MEI 5.
IIIF Folder Contents
The images in this folder are high-quality scans of the Liber Usualis pages, intended for eventual integration with an IIIF image server.
