Description	Preston Hunter's website Adherents.com is one of the most valuable tools available on the Internet for researchers needing statistical information on religious groups or organisations around the globe. The site is easily navigable and may be searched by either geographic location or religious affiliation. Though the bulk of information relates to American religious demographics, those digging for information will be hard pressed to find any belief system omitted, as virtually all-major cultures are included somewhere in these pages. Appropriate for students and academics at all levels, inquiries produce detailed information on various sects and denominations within a faith, their distribution, the number of adherents, the percentage of the population, and (when available) the number of congregations or churches. Thankfully, the editors have taken care to provide the source information for each entry and often a link to the referring page for electronically published data. Limited amounts of historical population statistics are also available through this site. The site features advertising but it is not obtrusive.

Description	The 'African Traditional Religion' web pages maintained by Chidi Denis Isizoh are a general collection of resources on indigenous African cultures and beliefs, as well as their development both in Africa and in the African Diaspora. Through a series of articles, students and others with a general interest in African society are introduced to a number of social and religious issues including: women's role in religious rites; an examination of certain creation myths; and the function of marriage. There is also an interesting collection of papers tracking the interaction of native African religions with Christianity and Islam. For those writing papers of their own or furthering their research, a number of superior resources may be found here, including a bibliography of traditional African religion, and statistical information on religious adherence. The section on traditional religion in the African diaspora includes links to online resources on: voodoo; Orisha; Ifa; and Candoble. An extensive series of links to a wide variety of related topics (many from academic sources) will also assist research into any aspect of African culture.

Description	The website of the Association of Religion Data Archives (ARDA) is an essential resource for students and academics researching or exploring religious trends and developments in the United States and elsewhere. Formerly known as the American Religion Data Archive, it was established to collect and preserve statistical information and reports on a host of religious organisations and issues. The project originally focused on religion in America, but has since expanded to include data about other countries. Information is categorised into national and regional assessments, with reports on religious denominations, and surveys of religious professionals. Research results from whole survey questionnaires may be downloaded from the site, and an extremely thorough search utility allows the user to scan the whole body of information for specific issues and then extract that information. It is even possible to conduct some limited comparisons from separate data files and collate the results. While not limited to the Judeo-Christian tradition, much of the information presently held is on Christian groups, with particularly good survey data available on Catholicism in America. The Archive is directed by Roger Finke.

Title	Bibliographic information base in patristics
Description	The Bibliographic Information Base in Patristics is a database system specialising in patristics. Although patristic literature remains its major preoccupation, the BIBP touches on all disciplines associated with patristic Christianity. The site allows readers to use the bibliographical services of the BIBP, thereby making available an online database that contains over 30,000 records from 325 journals relating to patristic studies and the history of early Christianity. The chief language of the site is French, though an introduction and a limited amount of other information is available in English. Presently, the search interface for the database is only in French; however, it is possible to search for English terms, and to limit the results by language (at time of writing, over 7,000 records referred to English language works). A number of indexes are also available in PDF format.

Producer	Overseas Ministries Study Center (OMSC)
Description	Concern about this situation brought a group of China scholars to a consultation at the Overseas Ministries Study Center (OMSC), in New Haven, Connecticut, in October 2005 to consider how to narrow the gap between current reference materials and contemporary Chinese Christian demography. They decided to begin by founding the Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Christianity, an electronic database modelled on the Dictionary of African Christian Biography (DACB). The BDCC is an electronic database containing the essential biographical facts of Chinese and foreign Christian missionaries, church leaders, evangelists, and laity chiefly responsible for laying the foundations and advancing the growth of Chinese Christian communities and their influence in societies around the world. While the database is widely inclusive of time periods and faith traditions, the distinctive focus of the project is on the lesser-known Chinese Christians of the modern era (1800 to 1950). An international team of scholars collaborates to facilitate the project. Contributors are drawn from academic, church, and mission communities in China, Asia and the West. The project aims to stimulate local data gathering from universities, churches, seminaries and colleges, and para-church agencies, with faculty members, graduate students, and organizational staff doing research and writing. With a solid base in academic expertise, the project nevertheless introduces the personal stories of grass-roots Chinese Christians and their communities in a lively writing style for a general audience.

Producer	Sinological Institute, University of Leiden, The Netherlands
Description	This truly superior online collection of citations and bibliographic material has been compiled by Barend J. ter Haar at the University of Leiden. The main introductory page of his Bibliographies on Chinese History and Culture leads to eight different extensive (and usually annotated) bibliographical resources on Chinese society. While this includes references for literacy and education, violence, and protest and dissent, many categories are specifically devoted to religious themes including the Yao religion, Shamanism, and the Falun Gong movement, as well as more general collections on twentieth century religious life and culture in mainland China. The bibliographies are organised in a series of logical sub-divisions, and include details of electronic resources. However, a basic search engine to retrieve references by author or exact subject would be a welcome addition to the site. In any case, undergraduates and academics at all levels who wish to enlarge their knowledge of Chinese secondary sources will find these lists useful, whether they are searching for books or material on the Web. New lecturers may also wish to avail themselves of the Teaching Aids section, which takes the form of an extended annotated exploration of Internet, encyclopaedic and print resources.

Description	The Bibliography of Western Language Publications on Chinese Popular Religion (1995 to present) is an online listing of primarily English journal and book references, addressing a wide variety of geographical and cultural aspects from Oriental belief systems. Compiled by Philip Clart, Professor of Chinese Studies at the University of Leipzig, the bibliography started life as a collection of citations taken from his own articles published in the journal 'Minjian zongjiao' (volumes 3-5, 1995-1997). Presently, resources are organised under 20 different subject categories that include topics as diverse as folklore, deities, gender issues, and rituals. These categories include three local studies sections, covering Taiwan, Hong Kong, and the mainland. Separate year-by-year lists are also given for the most recent publications. Unfortunately, the site currently lacks any internal search facility. Despite this, researchers at all levels and in every subset of religious studies in the east are likely to find this resource valuable.

Description	'Buddhism in Europe: an Annotated Bibliography' is an online resource by noted Buddhist scholar, Professor Martin Baumann. The current edition is the third since 1996 and includes around ninety new titles, making it a useful current resource for researchers in religion, history and related areas at all levels. The bibliography is divided into four sections: General overviews and surveys; Geographical Studies; Added titles since January 1988; Table of estimated numbers of Buddhists in European countries in 2000. The material included is focused on scholarly studies considering the development of Buddhism and Buddhist-activities from both a historical and contemporary perspective. Academic books and articles, theses and journals by national Buddhist organisations of individual countries are covered. As this is a developing resource, suggestions for additions are welcomed. A large proportion of the entries have a short review by Martin Baumann, Ian Harris, Russell Web, Alioune Kone or Lionel Obadia. The bibliography is accessed as a simple scroll-down page and, aside from being rather long for this presentation, is very straightforward to use.

Producer	University of Birmingham and Crowther Centre for Mission Education at CMS in Oxford
Number of record	One of the richest collections of mission and international history in Britain, the CMS archives contain more than two million items. Following the integration of CMS and the South American Mission Society (SAMS) in 2010, the collection will include the SAMS archive (see below).
Covered areas	In Birmingham: With an estimated 2,000,000 items, this is by far the largest collection in the University Library. It has been received in instalments from 1979, and papers from the Society's foundation in 1799 up to 1949 are currently open for scholarly study. The collection is a rich source of information not only for ecclesiastical history and missiology but also for the secular history and anthropology of the many countries, particularly in Asia and Africa, in which the Society has operated. Included are records of the Society's home administration (minute books, ledgers, correspondence and publications) and of the work of individual missions, amongst them letters and diaries kept by missionaries. Over the years the Society has absorbed three other missionary societies, and their archives too now form part of the collection in the University Library; they are the Church of England Zenana Missionary Society (founded 1880), the Female Education Society (founded 1834), and the Loochoo Naval Mission (founded 1843). In Oxford: Although the main archive collection is held in Birmingham there are many archival resources that may be consulted in Oxford: • A full set of the archive catalogues for the Birmingham collection • Microfilms of the Archive collection (approximately 2/3 of the collection has now been filmed by Adam Matthews Publications and is available for viewing ) South American Mission Society archive: There is some important archive material, including photographic material, minute books, diaries (including those of the founder of SAMS, Captain Allen F Gardiner RN, most notably his final one found by his body in Tierra del Fuego in 1852), and a full set of the Society's magazine (now known as Share) from its inception in 1867. Microform Academic Publishers hold a set of 17 reels of microfilm containing 'Records from the archive of the South American Missionary Society'. This includes most of the material up to 1919, including the journals of Allen Gardiner, Edward Bernau and Adolfo Henriksen, General Committee Minutes from 1844 and the Society's magazine.
Search methods	The collection is predominantly on open access to accredited users.

Producer	San Diego State University
Description	As part of publishing one of the standard textbooks in the field, the 4th edition of Richard H. Robinson and Willard L. Johnson's The Buddhist Religion, the suggested readings section was put online and remains a useful if slightly dated bibliography of resources for Buddhist studies. The directory is conveniently divided into a number of sections, including works on the Buddha, Buddhist texts, Buddhism in different countries, and various forms of Buddhism. There are also references to general works, and to other bibliographies of Buddhism. The authors include a brief introductory discussion of the various issues surrounding the compilation of the bibliography, and the putative distinction between religious and scholarly texts. The site is clearly presented and easy to use. It would be of value to both students and scholars seeking texts in specific areas of Buddhism and Buddhist studies.

Title	Christian classics ethereal library (CCEL)
Description	The Christian Classics Ethereal Library (CCEL) is one of the largest and best online collections of Christian theological and spiritual works. Directed by Harry Plantinga at Calvin College, the library contains an immense assortment of electronic texts ranging from the earliest of Christian theologians through to 19th century authors. Notable offerings include: the complete Early Church Fathers series (all thirty-eight volumes of the Ante-Nicene, Nicene, and Post-Nicene Fathers are available); the works of St Thomas Aquinas (English translations of the Summa Theologica and Catena Aurea are available); and a selection of works by Anselm, Dante, Walter Hilton, St John of the Cross, Martin Luther, John Calvin, John Foxe, John Wesley, and many others. The works are available in a variety of formats, and may be either read online or downloaded (downloading requires free registration). The site may be browsed by author, title, or subject, and a search engine is also provided. There are also occasional links to texts hosted off-site. Most of the texts offered by CCEL are in English (though users should note that copyright considerations mean that translations are often some decades old); a few are also in other languages. Many works on the site have been encoded in Theological Markup Language (ThML), which provides special support for theological needs such as scripture references and Strong's numberings. Music students and lovers of church hymns may enjoy perusing the Hymnary, organised both by song title and composer. In many cases it is possible both to download the score for a hymn and to listen to a MIDI file. A valuable resource for scholars and students alike.

Title	The Dictionary of African Christian Biography (DACB)
Description	The Dictionary of African Christian Biography (DACB) is a free online reference resource aiming to record the untold stories of African Christians who have impacted the history of the African church, and of Christianity more widely. Presented as an electronic database browsable by name of subject or region, it covers all denominations and branches of African Christianity, including the missionary movement, from earliest times to the present. The DACB aims to foster an understanding of African Christianity in its own right, as something more than simply a footnote to the story of the faith in Europe. Versions of the site are available in English, French, Portuguese, and Swahili. The Dictionary is a work in progress, but it already offers a considerable quantity of interesting material.

Producer	The Earlham School of Religion, Richmond, USA
Title	Digital Quaker collection
Description	The Digital Quaker Collection at the Earlham School of Religion is an online digital library containing the full text and page images of over 500 individual Quaker works from the 17th and 18th centuries. The site's organisers write: "The theological and organizational biases of Quakers have historically inhibited the production of systematic presentations on theological topics. As a result, the great wealth of Quaker thinking is contained in primary materials such as journals, epistles, and monographs." As a result, many of the volumes held by the School of Religion and available via this digitised project are rare and/or hard to locate. All of these texts are freely accessible via this excellent website; a fairly comprehensive bibliography and a page of links to related resources are also included. Made possible by a large grant from the Arthur Vinings Davis Foundations, the site is well-presented and easy to navigate.

Title	EarlyChurch.org.uk
Description	The early Church website covers the history of the Church from its foundation until c.600 CE. This site is a bibliographic guide listing primary and secondary sources by topic. Topics include: the Bible; councils; heresies and sects; famous individuals within the Church (listed alphabetically); ecclesiastical history; philosophy (Aristotle, Plato, Neo-Platonism, Cynicism, Epicureanism and Stoicism); and study aids. The inclusion of non-Christian philosophy means that the coverage period actually dates back to the fifth century BCE, and thus provides a useful bibliography for students of (Classical) philosophy as well as those studying early Christianity. There, are, however, no accompanying descriptions of the books, but given the extensiveness of the lists, this is understandable. The site is maintained by Robert Bradshaw, who has a Cambridge diploma in religious studies from Mattersey Hall (Assemblies of God Bible College).

Producer	Templeton Foundation Press
Description	The Gifford Lectures website offers an online database of books derived from the prestigious lecture series of the same name. Since 1888, lectures have been delivered at four Scottish universities (Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, and St. Andrews) on the subject of natural theology (that is, the part of theology that depends on human observation and reasoning rather than on divine revelation). The subject has been interpreted broadly, and topics covered include: anthropological religion; science and religion; agnosticism; religious experience; faith; and religious epistemology. The site offers details of each series of lectures, including the title, an abstract, and a biography of the lecturer. Most Gifford lecture series gave rise to books, and the site offers searchable full text versions of over a hundred volumes (though older works are more likely to be available than newer ones, presumably for reasons relating to copyright). With authors including Emil Brunner, Rudolf Bultmann, John Macquarrie, and Richard Swinburne, this is a valuable resource for theologians and philosophers of religion. Period: 19th Century; 20th Century (1900 - 1945); 20th Century (1946 - 1999); 2000 – present.
