UCL has a trial of the Bibliography of the Revue d’Histoire Ecclésiastique until 29 February 2012.

This database covers literature dealing with various aspects of Church history (institutions, orders and congregations, laity, hagiography, etc). However it is not limited to the history of the Church in a strict sense: themes touching on the history of the Church are also covered (political, social and economic history, archeology, history of art, music, architecture, relationships to other religions, heretical movements etc.) It contains 286,000 references (and 92,0000 book reviews) from 1974 to 2011, and is regularly updated.

YouTube tutorials are available on specific topics or as general introduction to the bibliography.
