New Journals at the Library

We recently added several new periodicals to our collection. As we head towards the start of the 2020 legislative session, remember that legislative patrons can sign up (or tweak your existing selections) for the library's two current awareness services: Inside Issues or Contents Pages.

Journal of Health Politics, Policy and Law, published by Duke University Press, "focuses on the initiation, formulation, and implementation of health policy and analyzes the relations between government and health—past, present, and future.” Many issues are built around a theme, and recent themes have included "Health and Political Participation" and "The Political Beliefs and Civic Engagement of Physicians in an Era of Polarization.”

Another recent addition is American Affairs, published by the American Affairs Foundation Inc. Each quarterly issue of American Affairs explores topics in domestic and foreign policy, as well as broader debates in economic theory, political thought, and social criticism. They feature established authors and new voices, from both the Right and the Left.

CW 360, published by the Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare, is an annual publication that provides communities, child welfare professionals, and other human service professionals comprehensive information on the latest research, policies, and practices in key areas affecting child well-being today. Recent examples of journal topics include:  "The Impact of Housing and Homelessness on Child Well-Being" and "Child Welfare Reform.”

Midway through 2019, the Library started receiving The Clarity Journal. This biannual journal features the latest plain language research, practical advice, before-and-after examples, success stories, campaign strategies, and much more. Each issue has a different focus.

Please ask us if you need assistance signing up for our current awareness services, or if you would like to know more about any of our journals. Email refdesk@lrl.leg.mn or call our reference desk at 296-8338.
