> Authority; Planex from IDOX plc (ex Planning Exchange) and Caredata from
> the Social Care Institute for Excellence. The database offers over 200,000
> abstracted bibliographic records and contains a significant number of
> unique references to fugitive literature - semi-published reports, working
> papers, local and central government reports, and material from the
> voluntary sector and charities.
> Subjects include public health, social care, homelessness and housing,
> crime and law and order, families, children and older people, and public
> and social policy.
> Copies of all the original documents cited are available from the British
> Library Document Supply Service.
