Can you clarify what you're looking for? In the western Church, the only litany that's really used in the liturgy is the Litany of the Saints at the Easter Vigil, during the procession to the baptismal font. Otherwise, any litany can be used at any time during the year, so there is no real "calendar" that would indicate when a particular litany is appropriate.
There are litanies traditionally associated with particular liturgies (like the Divine Praises at Benediction) but no calendar of when it should be used.

I'm not aware of a Calendar per se. But here is a link to several litanies that you may find some you'd like to use. http://www.ewtn.com/Devotionals/Litanies/index.htm
This is one that I personally say nearly every day and have found many benefits in the prayers. http://www.st-thomascamas.org/moretreasures/litanyofhumility.htm
I'm partially wondering if your looking for Novena's instead of litanies, but after you look at these maybe you could let us know. The reason I thought of the Novena's is because several weeks throughout the year our parish priest leads us in Novenas for nine days after mass that correspond with the litugical calendar. We have a parish prayer book that includes the novenas and the dates we will be praying them after mass, so those of us not able to attend daily mass can participate with the rest of the parish community by praying them at home.
Hope this helps
Betty
