Policylibrary.com
http://www.policylibrary.com/index.html
Policy Library places public policy knowledge in the public domain. Its aim is to contribute to public understanding of social, economic and political questions through research, dissemination and publication. There are two main components of the Library. The first is the database of online policy and research papers - which aims to be progressively comprehensive in its coverage - from UK think tanks to think tanks in English speaking world, to policy papers from universities and government research, to foreign language research papers. The second is an attempt in some policy areas to place those papers in context - through subjective literature reviews. The aim of these reviews is to point people in the direction of the most important research and away from the insubstantial or self-serving government puff.
