BSANZ Bulletin on APAIS

I mentioned in an earlier post that a number of indexes exist for the BSANZ Bulletin (now Script and Print). Here is another.

The Australian Public Affairs Information Service (APAIS) is an index, compiled by the National Library, to scholarly articles in the social sciences and humanities published in Australia (see here for more information). APAIS has comprehensive coverage of the BSANZ Bulletin from 1981. A Full Text version of the APAIS database is available via subscription as part of the Informit Online (see here).

As of 1 December 2006, a search for "Bibliographical Society of Australia and New Zealand" on APAIS brings up 402 records, of which 203 are full-text pdf files. This makes it the most extensive index available, by far. Below is a typical record.
