The Library has three main sections:

  • Biographies of Catherine McAuley and some of the early founding sisters;
  • an example of a mid-19th Century Mercy convent library;
  • a collection of books, written by or about Sisters of Mercy and Mercy Ministries.

The library currently holds 987 publications which have been catalogued electronically on Librarything.com.

MIA is looking to authors to donate a copy of their works to the Catherine McAuley library.
