The Salesian Bulletin is an official publication[1] of the Salesians that was founded in August 1877 by Don Bosco. It has been published without interruption since then. The proliferation of the educational works of Don Bosco in the five continents, is the first responsible of the survival of the Salesian Bulletin. As for 2010, the Bulletin was published in 56 different editions and 29 languages for 135 countries.[2]
Purpose
The purpose of the Salesian Bulletin was established by Don Bosco. It is linked initially with the foundation of the Association of Salesian Cooperators and the first Salesian missionaries in the Americas. Don Bosco intended that the Bulletin, as the official publication of the Salesian Congregation, will link Salesians and cooperators.[1]
History
The Salesian Bulletin comes from a former experience that Don Bosco did in having his own publication. Although the researchers never found a copy, it was traced a second issue by August 1875 named Bibliofilo Cattolico (The Catholic Booklover) that was printed in the Oratory Press of Don Bosco. The Catholic Booklover was dedicated to late vocations.[3] The first editions were published in Italian, but it will be soon not just translated by edited in several languages between the 19th and 20th century.
Expansion
In August 1877, Don Bosco did a transformation of the Bibliofilo Cattolico to Montly Salesian Bulletin (Bollettino Salesiano Mensuale). The fact that Don Bosco numbered it as 5 and volume 3, proved the continuity with the Bibliofilo.[3]
The first language was French, followed by Spanish in 1886. Don Bosco died early 1888 and the continuity of the publication passed to his successors.

Archbishop Gastaldi's prohibition of the Bulletin
A moment of the controversy between Don Bosco and the Archbishop of Turin, Lawrence Gastaldi, was when the Archbishop prohibited the publication of the Salesian Bulletin in May 1878. The reason was that Don Bosco was planning to build a new church that was opposed by Mgr. Gastaldi.[5] The Salesian Bulletin published an article on April, The Salesian Cooperators to the Everlasting Memory of the Great Pius IX (the Pope died in February,) appealing to the charity of the Salesian cooperators to support the project.
In a letter signed by Cardinal Alexander Franchi, the Archbishop communicated to Don Bosco that he was going to build a church in honor of the decease Pope and, therefore, "a dual appeal to Christian charity for one and the same purpose seems inadvisable".[5]
Don Bosco answered to the Cardinal that the appeal was not for the faithful but for the Salesian cooperators and that it was published in Sampierdarena and not in Turin, being, therefore, under the authority of the Archbishop of Genoa. The answer of Don Bosco was contested by the Sacred Congregation of Bishops and Regulars where he was prohibited to continue with the project of the new church.
