Those who have paid the Annual Use Fee to use the previous year's Original Edition and Monthly Revised Editions must pay the Annual Use Fee for the current year, if they wish to use the current year's Original Edition and Monthly Revised Editions.

The Official Traditional Catholic Directory has been issued in paperback since 1994 and only as an eBook since 2006, in the universal and free Adobe Acrobat PDF format. This format allows the Registry to revise the Directory monthly instead of annually. You can obtain a printed copy, if you wish, by printing out the PDF file.

About the National Registry of Traditional Latin Masses

PLEASE SEND LISTING UPDATES TO THE NATIONAL REGISTRY OF TRADITIONAL LATIN MASSES (registry@traditio.com), AN INDEPENDENT ORGANIZATION SEPARATE FROM THE TRADITIO NETWORK.

The National Registry of Traditional Latin Masses (registry@traditio.com), in operation since 1994, maintains the only complete list, by sponsoring organization (distinguishing which are valid and which are invalid), of the approximately 800 Traditional Catholic Latin Masses in the pre-Vatican II Roman Rite, regularly and publicly celebrated in North America, as well as contacts for Mass sites outside North America. It also maintains a list of traditional Catholic periodicals, suppliers, organizations, seminaries, religious orders, lay societies, retreats, schooling, and a necrology of traditional Catholic priests.

The Registry publishes its listings in the more than 200-page Official Traditional Catholic Directory annually, as well as monthly revised editions. About one-third of the information changes each year, so previous annual editions are obsolete and may cause substantial inconvenience if the outdated information is relied upon. This indispensable book for the traditional Catholic includes:

1. the only comprehensive list by sponsoring organization of the approximately 800 Traditional Latin Masses in the perpetually-approved pre-Vatican II Roman Rite, regularly and publicly celebrated in North America (distinguishing which are valid and which are invalid)
2. contacts for Traditional Latin Mass sites outside North America and in Rome
3. the most complete list of suppliers for everything that is traditionally Catholic: artwork, audiotapes, Bibles, books, church and chapel supplies, devotional items, Gregorian Masses, liturgical calendars, medals, monstrances, music, scapulars, stationery, traditional incense and communion breads, software, statues, veils, vestments, videotapes, and much more
4. complete lists and contact information for traditional Catholic periodicals, organizations, seminaries, religious orders, lay societies, retreats, and schooling
5. general information and documents on traditional liturgy and practice, such as Quo Primum, De Defectibus, traditional fast and abstinence, indulgences, a warning against "pseudo-traditional" services, and more
6. a necrology of traditional Catholic priests
