Database of Resources (Click here)
The Database of Resources is a searchable database of the literature. Articles are listed alphabetically by author. The data base also provides for each article: the article's title, year of publication, the format in which the article is available, the type of literature source (academic or grey literature), notes on how to access the document and whether it is an open source. Each article listing also provides the Canadian human rights key themes and sub themes, discussed in the article and other relevant tags applicable to the article. The data base is searchable by main theme, sub-theme or relevant tags.
