Originally intended as a supplement to the standard college library list (Charles Bunsen Shaw, A List of Books for College Libraries [Chicago, A.L.A., 1931]). Titles were selected by vote by Catholic College Librarians. The work was undertaken because the needs of a Catholic college curriculum obviously require an expanded list in the fields of philosophy and religion. History, literature and Romance languages are also well represented. The arrangement of titles is by broad subject group with form subdivisions. No annotations. Author, title, subject index.

For a time this work was updated by supplemental lists appearing in C.U.L.S.: The Quarterly Newsletter of the College and University Section of the Catholic Library Association, but this seems to have been discontinued.
