Since it's such a bookish issue, I'd have thought there would be an obvious place on the works page to note Catholic (and perhaps other types) of review stamps.
Does anyone mark these things in their collections? And if so, in what manner?
Thanks.

Yes, I've proposed we do that before. I'll go look for it.

Tarnation, I can't find where I did. What do you propose? Or rather, what sort of structure should it use?

Hmmmm, how about a line just below "Awards and honors," refering to historical permissions or denials to print. There have been civic censorships that would fit this general category as well. Ha! Do you think this type of feature might cause an explosion of opinion here?
The book I'm looking at today has a Nihil Obstat by a particular person of the Censor Librorum. The Imprimatur has the name of the reviewer, his office (Archbishop of New York), and a date. And Wikipedia says that each translation requires its own imprimatur. That complicates it being on the works page.

Don't books by some religious also have an Imprimi Potest from the superior?
