The Loire Chansonniers : indexes for Laborde, Mellon, Copenhagen and Wolfenbuttel

They are the Laborde Chansonnier published by Octavo / rarebookroom.org, the Mellon Chansonnier by the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University, the Copenhagen Chansonnier by Det Kongelige Bibliotek and the Wolfenbüttel Chansonnier by the Herzog August Bibliothek.
