Web archive of public policy research launched

Researchers and others should check out Policy
Archive, a new searchable, indexed website that hosts public policy
research papers from more than 220 think tanks and research institutes. The
site – created by the Center for Governmental Studies and the Indiana
University Purdue University Indianapolis University Library – has already
collected 12,000 policy and research papers on more than 300 topics, including media
and information. At the moment, research on the site appears to originate mostly
from U.S. research organizations. However, the site is expected to expand in
future to include work from international sources.
