Using the Site

Finding new research
Brief details of all reports posted during the previous week will be found on our Home Page. You can browse these either by accessing this site on a weekly basis or by subscribing to our free e-mail alert service.


Finding earlier research
Brief details of all reports posted during the previous 12-month period can be accessed from Policypointers. Two methods of searching are available:-

  • Search by classification. This will yield details of all reports falling within this classification. Note that some reports are classified under more than one heading.



  • Keyword search. Keywords may be from the report title, name of organisation publishing the report, subject description, etc.



Both types of search will deliver results listed in order of recency.

THEN – to access the full report, simply click on the title. This step normally takes you the website of the report’s publisher. In cases where the full text is not available online, a publisher’s summary, press release or similar notice may be shown.

If you are unfamiliar with the work or nature of the organisation that has produced the report, we strongly recommend that you access the About Us page on their website.
