The announcement was made this week that the assets of TAN were purchased by the owners of Saint Benedict Press, a North Carolina-based publisher of Catholic classics. TAN, founded in 1967, had been struggling financially.

TAN Books and Publishers will remain an independent imprint within Saint Benedict Press, maintaining its brand identity.

Brent Klaske, who will assume general management of TAN, said he was «thrilled that we will be able to continue our mission of sharing faithful Catholic books with people around the world.»

Among the Classics published by TAN include the Baltimore Catechism series, the Douay-Rheims Bible, St. Teresa of Avila’s «Conversation with Christ,» and «The Dialogue» of St. Catherine of Siena.
