Welcome to this CRRA subject guide on Catholic Literary Figures. It is designed to quickly connect Catholic Portal users to print books, archival materials, and electronic collections by and about famous Catholic writers in CRRA member libraries and archives (and beyond). For an author to be included on this guide there must be a significant number of items on them and their work in the Catholic Portal and/or online collections on CRRA member websites. Enjoy!
