Multicultural Australia and Immigration Studies – Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Subset (MAIS-ATSIS)

Multicultural Australia and Immigration Studies - Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Subset (MAIS-ATSIS), produced by the Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs Library, is a subset of the MAIS database.

MAIS is a bibliographic database that indexes and abstracts a wide range of media from published and unpublished material on all aspects of Australian immigration and multicultural issues. The MAIS-ATSIS subset contains records that specifically relate to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.

Source documents include books, book chapters, journal articles, selected newspaper articles, government documents, conference papers, research reports, theses and multimedia.

MAIS-ATSIS also contains web links to content.

Subject coverage includes immigration, emigration, multiculturalism, ethnicity, racism, multicultural education, migrant health, welfare and social services, access and equity, settlement services, refugees, population studies, and Aboriginal studies. Some international material is included.

From August 1996 the focus has narrowed to Australian material only.
