History

Established in 1973 with support from USAID, the database was part of the Population Information Program (PIP) at George Washington University, and then at Johns Hopkins University. For nearly 40 years, POPLINE has facilitated comprehensive literature reviews by researchers, scholars, and teachers, while enabling practitioners and program managers to acquire the concise planning and operational knowledge that they need. In the course of gathering this information and refining the tools to access it, POPLINE has not only created the most comprehensive knowledge sharing resource in this crucial field, but has also formed a network of clients who use it to create and share new knowledge.


Scope and Content

POPLINE includes information on population and family planning, specifically research in contraceptive methods, family planning services, research in human fertility, maternal and child health, HIV/AIDS in developing countries, program operations and evaluation, demography, and other related health, law, and policy issues. Many documents are unique to the collection and are unavailable elsewhere.
