The University of Notre Dame is now member of HathiTrust. Here is an interesting digital collection at ND:
http://www.library.nd.edu/rarebooks/digital_projects/inquisition/collections/RBSC-INQ:COLLECTION
The materials featured on this website are from the University of Notre Dame's Harley L. McDevitt Inquisition Collection. The collection consists of several hundred items, from printed volumes to unique manuscripts and images, all bearing some relationship to the general theme of "inquisition." For the most part the documents were produced by the Spanish inquisition or its critics, though several pieces also relate to other regions. Thanks to the generosity of Harley L. McDevitt (ND '29), Notre Dame was able to purchase the collection as a whole in 1997. Its contents comprise of one of the world's most important and distinctive private collections for inquisition studies.
This website is intended as a resource for students and researchers interested in histories of inquisitions worldwide. Though primarily focused on the Spanish inquisitions of the fifteenth to nineteenth centuries, attention is also paid to medieval inquisitions as well as to Portuguese, Roman and various New World inquisitions that existed from the sixteenth century onwards. Thematic introductory essays present various types of documents generated by and around these religious tribunals with references given for further reading. Examples of selected documents discussed in the essays are also provided to give viewers a virtual "hands-on" experience of examining such materials in their original format. Overall the goal is to stimulate and facilitate further exploration of inquisition history by familiarizing new generations with its extremely rich yet challenging documentary legacy.
