All the major international journals and books are scanned and other original sources and cataloguing services regularly searched for appropriate items.

An author and subject index appear in each issue to facilitate the rapid retrieval of relevant information. These are cumulated annually and bound in the final issue of each volume.

SWA is now available in an easy-to-use, fully-searchable online database format and is available free to institutional subscribers to the print journal. The database comprises abstracts from the journal, dating back to 1995. Abstracts are linked, where possible, to full-text services.
