    I found a reference to this online, but couldn't find much info on it. I see that the collection of Lindusky motets is from this series, but that's about all I can find.

    Does anyone know anything about this? What was it? What sorts of things did they publish? Was it good music?

    A search in WorldCat reveals that it was published from 1964-69 by the World Library of Sacred Music (now World Library Publications or WLP), and is comprised of liturgical music in English - either adaptions of earlier compositions or newly composed pieces. It includes a set of English propers by Paul Arbogast which the CMAA has put online here.

    Another book from the series, Renaissance Motets in English for 3 equal voices a capella, Volume 1 (ed. Rev. Eugene Lindusky, O.S.C.), can be found online here (may take a while to upload).

    I had this collection until (sadly) the USPS lost it in transit last year.
