Welcome to the Catholic Research Resources Alliance
A collaborative effort initiated by 8 Catholic colleges and universities to share their resources electronically with librarians, archivists, researchers, scholars interested in the Catholic experience, and the general public.
About the Portal
The Catholic Research Resources Portal provides access to rare, unique or infrequently held materials in academic libraries and seminaries' special collections and archives. By electronically bringing together access to resources in many collections, the portal will create easy, effective and global discovery of Catholic research resources. Using Dublin Core and the Open Archives Initiative Protocol and Metadata Harvests, the portal will provide access to research resources in print, digital and other formats.
Other ways to access the portal content:
- Administrative interface - Maintain the list of resources found in the Portal (login required)
- Search via SRU - Query the Portal with a simple/standardized interface
- OAI-PMH - Harvest the content of the Portal via the Open Access Protocol for Metadata Harvesting (Identify, ListRecords)
