CS Article Finder (CSAF) is an online facility that enables you to search for titles and authors of all the English based periodicals ever published by the Christian Science Publishing Society (CSPS).

About CSAF

CSAF is always up-to-date as it stores each periodical’s title, author and related details shortly after their publication. As CSPS own the copyright to the content of each periodical CSAF cannot display or search the articles themselves.

To access CSAF you only need a web browser and Internet connection (there is no software to install), and with many solid years of online service under its belt it has shown no computer or browser problems. Individuals, including Christian Science Teachers, Practitioners, Nurses and Lecturers, are currently using it for their personal research, and a multi-user licence (allowing four users for the price of two) is also used by Churches, Reading Rooms, Committees on Publication and Care Facilities.

Some comments from users …

• “We have found it very easy to use and the best aspect of it is that as each periodical comes in, the titles and authors are immediately entered. Also, with most periodicals you can get the exact publication date … I think it’s brilliant the way you’ve got everything into categories …” (UK RR)
• “this service will be a wonderful addition to our RR resources. And just at a time when we wish to be of better service to our customers.” B. (Canada)
• “Love the whole thing. Already very helpful for Assoc writing and research.” (UK)

CSAF Features …

• Article titles are individually grouped by categories, series and/or by sources from The Mother Church where applicable. They can be searched by keyword, theme, category or author, and the results can be easily sorted by title, author or publication date.
• Advanced searching by author’s last name, periodical cover themes (Click here for details) and title words.
• One free website add-in per registered user. This add-in displays a personalised list of article titles and their publication dates, and can be easily inserted into any website. An example of its use would be for a Practitioner, Nurse or Teacher to list all their published articles in a simple maintenance-free boxed layout. Articles to be listed can be specified by author or theme, and an interactive example which shows all Mrs Eddy’s articles can be viewed by clicking here
