Catholic Information Service

For 60 years the Knights of Columbus has brought the teachings of the Catholic Church to millions through easy-to-read booklets published by the Catholic Information Service. New titles are being added to our catalog regularly, all aimed at helping you understand more completely the richness of the Catholic faith and Catholic life.

CIS—On the Move

Catholic Information Service has always provided you with handy, reliable—and attractively packaged—resources to help you and your loved ones grow in the knowledge and practice of our Catholic faith.  Beginning in January 2009, however, you will notice a slight change at CIS.  Due to the rising cost of paper, production and postage, we must change our pricing structure.  The last time we did so was over a decade ago.  While still drastically below the actual cost of producing our high quality resources, and still offering discounts for bulk purchases, CIS must increase its fees.  The new prices are:  1-99 booklets--$1.00 each; 100-200 booklets--.90 each; 201-500--.80 each; over 500--.75 each. 

Podcasting the Kingdom

Podcasts of the Luke E. Hart Series booklets (based on the Catechism ) and the Veritas Series are now able to be heard on your computer or downloaded to your mp3 player. You can subscribe to these free podcasts for your PC or Mac computer. By subscribing to our RSS feeds through an RSS reader, you’ll receive a summary of our new content as soon as we post it. An RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed is a regularly updated summary of Web content, along with links to full versions of that content.

New Resources On-Line in Spanish

The Catholic Information Service (CIS) is happy to announce that the entire Luke E. Hart Series and some of the Veritas Series booklets are now available online in  Spanish. The Hart Series offers 30 booklets which explore the Catholic teaching as found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. The Veritas booklets explore various matters pertaining to Catholic faith and Catholic life. As new booklets become available in Spanish they will be added to the CIS webpage. To read the booklets online please visit Luke E. Hart Series and the Veritas Series.
