Literature Database

The NCFY Library is a literature database containing abstracts, or summaries, of more than 18,000 publications that focus on youth and family issues.

Each entry includes information on obtaining the publication. When possible, we provide direct links to PDF files of open-access publications. Publications in the database do not necessarily reflect the views of NCFY, the Family and Youth Services Bureau or the Administration for Children and Families.
