Welcome

Welcome to the international page of the Catholic Documentation Centre ('Katholiek Documentatie Centrum' in Dutch, or KDC for short). Our heritage institution is a department of the University Library of the Radboud University in Nijmegen and is specialized in the social aspects of Dutch Catholicism since the nineteenth century. We are both a centre for documentation and conservation as a research institute.

Unfortunately, due to the nature of our archive collection, it is practically impossible to provide all the information in English. That’s why this website tries to provide a general guideline for all international students and researches who wish to make use of our sources and/or services.

If there are still any questions remaining? Please, feel free to contact us at info@kdc.ru.nl.
