Re: Lois database child welfare- criminology absracts.



Sir,

I am a grad student at Univ of North Carolina. I found
a database called "loislaw.com" listed at UNC
libraries, which maintains subscriptions to many, many
databases. loislaw is a collection of US federal and
state court decisions and other legal information.
Otherwise, I did not find a database matching the
description you gave. I would try the Social Sciences
Citation Index (SSCI) myself as that has always given
me excellent results in both areas.

Feel free to have a look at UNC's database list at
http://eresources.lib.unc.edu/eid/

You only need an ID to actually use the databases or
download a paper but the listings and descriptions are
open to the public.

Good luck!

Chris
