While retaining major emphasis on theological and scriptural materials, the library maintains a well-balanced general book collection, with strengths in the areas of philosophy, Church history, social justice, canon law and psychology. Additionally, the library subscribes to over 450 periodicals and relevant research aids. The majority of these are listed in the Catholic Periodical and Literature Index, The Religion Indexes, and in theological and scriptural abstracts. It also maintains a substantial collection of audiovisual materials in various formats.
