Exciting News!
IssueLab has become a part of the Foundation Center, an organization with 50+ years of experience in collecting, indexing and sharing data about the work of the third sector. This is an important step towards better managing and mobilizing the knowledge of the third sector and enabling us to better serve you!
Read a joint letter from both the Foundation Center and IssueLab about why this is such a good thing.
Special Research Collections
Increasingly IssueLab is being asked to host and disseminate collections of research that are either especially relevant to particular communities of practice or that comprise a single organization's publication history. Although we have just started doing this kind of work we have already gathered some incredible, and hard to find, research.
