ACYS resources include: * the peer-reviewed journal ''Youth Studies Australia'', which is a highly regarded source of knowledge on issues affecting Australian and New Zealand young people. * ''Youth Field Xpress'', a free email newsletter about youth research and youth work issues that contains a wide and eclectic range of news stories drawn from both online and print sources. * the (ACYS website ), which is an essential compendium of helpful information sources on youth issues * publications, including a (range of books ) on youth issues. History of ACYS: With its origins in the early 1980s as the ''National Clearinghouse for Youth Studies Bulletin'' based at the Australian National University, the clearinghouse moved to the University of Tasmania after a national bidding process in 1984. Following this move, the ''National Clearinghouse for Youth Studies Bulletin and Abstracts'' was distributed on a subscription basis. In 1989 after a change of staff, the bulletin was redesigned and re-launched as a journal, ''Youth Studies''. A year later the journal's title was amended to its current title, ''Youth Studies Australia''. In 1998, the National Clearinghouse for Youth Studies became the Australian Clearinghouse for Youth Studies or ACYS.
