In 1997, a group of scholars headed by Dr Jane Kodjabashia formed the Centre for Byzantology studies. Through its program of work, which involves conducting activities such as courses for Eastern Church singing as well as publication of theoretical and practical books on Church singing of Byzantine tradition, the Centre began the restoration process of the traditional Church singing in Macedonia introducing it as a new subject in religious studies. These publications solved the problem of a shortage of adequate literature on the subject of Church singing within religious studies. At present, these publications are widely used throughout Macedonia, but also in Serbia, Bosnia and Bulgaria as well as other regions and institutions that deal with orthodox Christian music heritage. Both the "Theory and practice of Church singing from Byzantine tradition (2004)" as well as the "Study guide for Eastern Church singing (2004)" are available for download
