Abstract
Describes the aims and work of the Applied Social Science Index and Abstracts (ASSIA) as providing a clear path to information for most research questions in social sciences in a clear and user‐friendly format. Discusses the chain indexing method used and the use of CD‐ROM. Concludes that ASSIA deserves the recognition and praise that reviewers have given it but that librarians have chosen to ignore.Keywords
