The current edition of The Liturgy of the Hours Supplement is copyrighted 1992.

Catholic Book Publishing Corp. does not currently publish Bibles (except for BIBLIA DE AMERICA and the St. Joseph New Catholic Bible in Spanish) or Missals (except for children) in any foreign language. We also do not publish Bibles or Missals that pre-date Vatican II. We publish only translations that have been approved by the Secretariat of Divine Worship, which carries out the work of the Bishops' Committee on Divine Worship, a standing committee of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops.
