The Union Index to Theosophical Peridiodicals is a database established and maintained by the [[Campbell Theosophical Research Library]] of Sydney, Australia, which is affiliates with the [[Theosophical Society in Australia]]. The website is at [http://www.austheos.org.au/indices/pindex.htm http://www.austheos.org.au/indices/pindex.htm].
 
Indices are arranged by:
* place (country) of publication
* chronologically by date of first issue
* alphabetically by first editor or founder
* as subsets:
** Alice Bailey, etc.
** Anthroposophy, Rudolf Steiner
** Esoteric School
** Judge, Point Loma, Pasadena, U.L.T., etc.
** Outline and Special Indices (not Plain, i.e. not included in Search and List Kit)
** Series, including Pamphlets, regular and irregular
** Theosophy-Science
 
In most of the indices, there is an entry for each article in the periodical, in this order (where '''n''' represents a number):
* Journal, abbreviated as 4-7 characters, such as '''ThQly''' for ''Theosophical Quarterly'' 
* Year, in the format '''ynnnn''', such as '''y1927''' 
* Volume, in the format '''vnn''', such as '''v17''' 
* Issue, in the format '''inn''', such as '''i5'''   
* Month (or quarter) spelled out, such as '''May'''
* Page, in the format '''pnnn''', such as '''p138'''
* Title, following a single dash 
* Author, following two dashes
 
The recently redesigned website facilitates searching by keyword, title, or author. A shortcut to the keyword search feature is [http://www.austheos.org.au/csearch/ui-search.htm http://www.austheos.org.au/csearch/ui-search.htm].
