Catholic Heritage website

I've been asked to give a quick plug to the Catholic Heritage: Network of Archives and Libraries of the Catholic Church website, located at http://archives.catholic-heritage.net/.

From the site:

The archives and manuscripts of catholic-heritage.net, consist of over 100,000 items which provide a rich resource for teaching, learning and research.

This online catalogue allows you to search for information about the archives and manuscripts held at:
  • Scottish Catholic Archives
  • Diocese of Westminster Archives
  • Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales
  • Royals Scots College, Spain
  • Royal English College, Spain
  • Society of Jesus, British Provincial Archives

It includes both collection level descriptions of parts of our holdings and the accompanying detailed catalogues of many of these collections. It is updated regularly so the information continues to grow. Each collection/fonds level description gives a summary of content as well as information about historical context and background. It also provides information about the availability of full catalogues or other finding aids.

Happy hunting!
