Rappaport Institute Policy Notes Database
The Rappaport Institute Policy Notes Database contains information on new and recent policy-related scholarly research about Greater Boston. The database allows users to search for articles, reports, and student theses by author, keyword or by one of 18 different subject areas, which include education, economic development, public finance, and social services. More information about these issues is available at IssueSource, an online database produced by MassInc and the State House News Service that "gives citizens basic, background information on Massachusetts politics and policy news stories."
The Rappaport Institute also produces Rappaport Institute Policy Notes, a newsletter, distributed both electronically and in print, that highlights the most notable new scholarly research about Greater Boston. Previous issues of the Rappaport Institute Policy Notes are available on our website. All items that have appeared in previous Policy Notes are available in the database. If you would like to receive this occasional email newsletter with the latest information on research findings, send an email to majordomo@ksglist.harvard.edu with "subscribe rappaport_policy_notes" in the body.
