Abstract	This bibliography, compiled for the International Year of Shelter for the Homeless, lists Australian works published since 1974 about homelessness. It includes definitions of homelessness from the literature and an introductory article looking at different perspectives on homelessness. The entries, mainly taken from FAMILY database, are each accompanied by an abstract or indicative statement about their contents. The bibliography is arranged in two sections. The first section lists Australian publications specifically about homelessness published from 1974 through 1987. Citations are listed chronologically beginning with the most recent articles. The second section lists Australian publications on factors that may contribute to homelessness and documents relating to particular populations in danger of becoming homeless. Documents in the second section are listed under the headings of: (1) Aborigines; (2) The Aged; (3) Crisis Accommodation; (4) The Disabled; (5) Drug Taking; (6) The Economics of Housing; (7) Government Assistance on Housing and Rent; (8) Migrant Communities; (9) One-Parent Families; (10) Poverty, Housing and Unemployment; (11) Refugees; (12) Women; and (13) Young People. Citations are listed alphabetically by author. Interspersed with the bibliography are four feature articles from the "Age" newspaper and an article on poverty in Australia in 1985-86. The final section of the book provides information on where to look for other works on the subject of homelessness, both in the overseas and the Australian literature. (NB)
