Collectanea Theologica jest naukowym kwartalnikiem teologów polskich, zainicjowanym w 1920 roku. Głównym celem czasopisma Collectanea Theologica jest prezentowanie aktualnego stanu teologii w Polsce i jej miejsca w teologii światowej. Na łamach periodyku poruszane jest bogate spektrum problematyki teologicznej, poczynając od zagadnień biblijnych po aktualne wyzwania pastoralne i liturgiczne. Collectanea Theologica jest czasopismem katolickim i jest poświęcone przede wszystkim teologii katolickiej. Wykazuje ono jednak także otwartość ekumeniczną na teologów innych wyznań chrześcijańskich. Zakładanymi odbiorcami publikowanych tekstów są profesorowie teologii i pasjonaci teologii w Polsce i na świecie. Kwartalnik trafia do wszystkich bibliotek teologicznych w Polsce i kilkunastu ważnych bibliotek zagranicznych. Jest także szeroko dostępny online. Zgodnie z profilem czasopisma, podstawowymi językami publikacji w czasopiśmie są języki angielski i polski. Preferowane są teksty napisane w języku angielskim, szczególnie jeśli dotyczą zagadnień uniwersalnych, a nie specyficznie polskich. W każdym przypadku, zarówno polski, jak i angielski abstrakt jest dostępne online. Czasopismo jest indeksowane m. in. w bazach Scopus, EBSCO Academic Search Ultimate, Index Copernicus i DOAJ.
