The Vatican Publishing House (; ) (LEV) is a publisher established by the Holy See in 1926. It is responsible for publishing official documents of the Roman Catholic Church, including Papal bulls and encyclicals. On Saturday, June 27, 2015, Pope Francis decreed in a motu proprio ("on his own initiative") apostolic letter that the Vatican Publishing House would eventually be incorporated into a newly-established Secretariat for Communications in the Roman Curia.
