Carmelite Digital Library (CDL)
The Complete Works of Sts. Teresa and John of the Cross
The Carmelite Digital Library (CDL) is a digital collection of all the works of St. John of the Cross and all the works of St. Teresa of Avila in two English translations and in Spanish. Developed by David and Sandra Malkovsky, OCDS, the CDL offers a rich and full-featured set of tools for reading, studying, and researching the works of these two great Carmelite Doctors of the Church.

The CDL is easy to use for research, leading a class, preparing homework, or presenting a lecture on the writings and teachings of Teresa and John.
