I am bound to work outside of Logos/Verbum because it contains neither the full Lectionary for Australia nor the bible versions used in that Lectionary (though the 63 Grail is coming). 

I have the full Lectionary for Mass for use in Australia and New Zealand available in two software programs and in one web subscription. So, it is available for licensing.

I would even be happy to have the Lectionary for Mass approved for use in  England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland, notwithstanding the different psalm response and gospel acclamation.

    It may be easier for FaithLife to license the relevant Bible instead.

    Not sure whether that is the case. It seems very difficult to license the Jerusalem Bible qua bible. The reason that I mentioned the other three means of access was to demonstrate the possibility of licensing the lectionary.

    Even having the Jerusalem Bible would not in itself fix the problem as the Lectionary resource otherwise populates with text from just one translation whereas the Lectionary for Mass in Australia uses two translations, modified JB and Grail.
