A '''Christian Science Reading Room''' is a facility operated as a public service by a [[Christian Science]] church in the community where that church exists. The local branches of [[The Mother Church]] ([[The First Church of Christ, Scientist]]) in [[Boston]], Massachusetts, maintain these rooms as a place where one may study and contemplate the [[Bible]] and Christian Science literature in a quiet atmosphere, similar to a library.

Literature and other items related to the study of Christian Science may be borrowed or purchased. There are approximately 2,000 Christian Science Reading Rooms worldwide.{{cn|date = March 2022}}
