Bibliographies

The Library at the Australian Institute of Family Studies has a comprehensive collection of the latest Australian and international literature that may be of practical use in the area of strengthening families and communities. The bibliographies that are listed below relate to this collection. Items in the bibliographies can be borrowed via the inter library loan system, from the Institute or other participating organisations.

(Note that this website is no longer updated but preserved as an archived site. The work of SFLEX is continued by a new clearinghouse - the Communities and Families Clearinghouse Australia (CAFCA) as part of the 2004-2009 Stronger Families and Communities Strategy.)

We have also drawn together some topic lists of resources available in full text on the internet - see Online resources and links.
