| - The American Tract Society (ATS) is a nonprofit, nonsectarian but evangelical organization founded on May 11, 1825, in New York City for the purpose of publishing and disseminating tracts of Christian literature. ATS traces its lineage back through the New York Tract Society (1812) and the New England Tract Society (1814) to the Religious Tract Society of London, begun in 1799. Over the years, ATS has produced and distributed many millions of pieces of literature. There is a printed pamphlet titled "Constitution of the American Tract Society, instituted in Boston 1814" referencing the distribution of 'Religious Tracts' by Christians in Europe and America during the previous twenty years. The purpose of which was to combine the energy & activities of various groups & individuals across New England. ATS is theologically conservative. It receives funding through a combination of private donations and tract sales to fund tract and evangelistic resource distribution, including start-up funding for foreign tract distribution in regions including Africa, Asia, India, South and Central America, Canada, Australia, and Europe. Churches and other evangelistic groups in the United States can purchase ATS literature for use in their own evangelistic ministries. ATS is board-governed and benefits from the visibility of its Council of Reference, an advisory board of evangelical notables from business, ministry, and other walks of life. ATS is currently headquartered in Garland, Texas. On September 1, 2012, American Tract Society entered into a joint publishing agreement with Good News Publishing, which is a division of Crossway.

- A Sociedade Americana de Panfletos (American Tract Society, ATS), é uma sociedade missionária protestante interdenominacional. Foi fundada em 11 de maio de 1825. Seus objetivos foram estabelecidos naquela ocasião como: To make Jesus Christ known in His redeeming grace and to promote the interests of vital godliness and sound morality, by the circulation of Religious Tracts, calculated to receive the approbation of all Evangelical Christians. (Fazer Jesus Cristo conhecido em Sua graça redentora e promover os interesses da religiosidade vital e sã moralidade pela circulação de panfletos religiosos, preparados para receber a aprovação de todos Cristãos Evangélicos). A primeira sede da ATS foi um prédio de quatro andares no número 87 da , em Nova Iorque. Mais tarde, em 1894, os fundos monetários já eram suficientes para prover a construção de um prédio de 23 andares próximo à Broadway e à Quinta Avenida. Na época de sua construção essa segunda sede era um dos prédios mais altos da cidade de Nova Iorque, e ainda está de pé. A criação da ATS foi motivada por três fatores: os Avivamentos religiosos, a rápida expansão norte-americana para o oeste e a desenfreada imigração para os Estados Unidos no século XIX. O objetivo da ATS era encontrar uma forma rápida e eficaz de evangelização, especialmente para o oeste americano, daí o uso de panfletos e folhetos contendo informações resumidas e de fácil assimilação. Essa técnica tornou-se uma das mais utilizadas entre as organizações e igrejas evangélicas. (pt)
