Social Services Abstracts provides bibliographic coverage of current research focused on social work, human services, and related areas, including social welfare, social policy, and community development. The database abstracts and indexes over 1,300 serials publications from 50 countries and includes abstracts of journal articles and dissertations, and citations to book reviews. CSA Social Services Abstracts was originally developed as Social Planning/Policy and Development Abstracts. It was published in print and included as a subfile (SF=SOPODA) of the electronic version of CSA Sociological Abstracts. As SOPODA, the database content focused on three areas: Social Work and Welfare, Social Policy, and Social Development. In the late 1990s, the database was a separate file and renamed in order to more effectively communicate its content and coverage scope to social work educators. The scope was also refined to include only social work, the broader social services, and social policy. The social development literature is covered now in CSA Sociological Abstracts.
