TARA: Teaching and Research Archive for the History of Christianity
Sponsored by the American Society of Church History
This website and database aims to introduce readers to the Jesuitica Collection at the Burns Library, Boston College, by highlighting books written about China by Jesuit missionaries.
Using historical maps, books, objects, and textiles, Crossings and Dwellings tells the story of European Jesuits and women religious who arrived in America’s borderlands to serve indigenous and immigrant populations.
The CCT-Database includes primary and secondary sources concerning the cultural contacts between China and Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries (from 1582 to ca. 1840).
The Archives of the House of the Superior General of the Society of Jesus includes digitized versions of primary and secondary sources related to Jesuits and their mission activities.
The ongoing Project is constructing inventories of books found in Jesuit library book catalogs, as well as of physical copies of those books and their provenance information.
Loyola University Archives and Special Collections hosts several digital collections on Catholic and Jesuit themes.

The goal of the project is to uncover the history of the acquisition and use of Loyola’s original library books. It grew out of an initiative to digitally reconstruct the earliest surviving library catalogue of St Ignatius College (founded 1870), the forerunner to Loyola University Chicago.
