SUGGESTION: RCIA bundle
I had this thought over the weekend (with the Rite of Election and all) of a Verbum bundle/guide that would appeal to RCIA directors and team members. It would be great to partner with someone like the ACM (Association for Catechumenal Ministry) and put their resources to work inside Logos/Verbum. As their materials focus on handouts, perhaps even something unique could be created that would put more emphasis on powerpoint presentation slides or something to that effect.
Then, you could throw in stuff like St. Augustine's First Catechetical Instruction, the CCC and VII documents, a Catholic Bible, the Lectionary, and of course, the Rites themselves. Basically, something similar to the Catechism bundle but with RCIA in mind.
In short, it would be a package that an RCIA director could pick up and easily use to create their RCIA sessions throughout the year.
I'm just kind of thinking aloud here. I'm sure some tweaking would be in order.

Catechism of the Catholic Church Collection (9 vols.) is a good start for what you want. and While i do not see the St. Augustine work you want available separately.
The Catechetical Lectures of St. Cyril by Cyril of Jerusalem might be a close replacement.

You can download Augustine's Enchiridion here - https://community.logos.com/forums/t/67019.aspx . And then make it into a personal book.
Agape,

There are some variations on how it's titled, but Augustine's Enchiridion is available in the following series:
Ancient Christian Writers, St. Augustine: Faith, Hope, and Charity
Fathers of the Church, Christian Instruction; Admonition and Grace; The Christian Combat; Faith, Hope and Charity
Early Church Fathers, Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers, First Series, vol. 3
Select Sermons, Homilies, and Treatises of St. Augustine, Seventeen Short Treatises.

I'm currently trying to study the RCIA process and wishing that the text was available in Verbum\Logos so I could keep with the rest of my notes on the liturgy and correlate to the Catechism, etc.... So I would at least like to have the RCIA text along with the related General Instruction. If there was a bundle that could be compiled with other related texts that would be great.

Which exact text do you mean? What is its formal name? There are a number of official texts relevant to RCIA.

I am looking for the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (Study Edition) complied by the International Commission on English in the Liturgy. ISBN: 0-930467-94-9. This includes the Ritual text for all rites included in this process as well as the General Instruction and several other helpful appendixes. This text is vitaly important to anyone working in Catechesis of any kind and especially to those involved in the RCIA process in any parish.
