Arizona State and Local Government Documents Collection
The State and Local Arizona Documents (SALAD) collection contains documents published by the State of Arizona, its Counties, incorporated Cities or Towns, or affiliated Councils of Government; documents produced under the auspices of a state or local agency, board, commission or department, including reports made to these units; and Salt River Project, a licensed municipality. ASU is a primary collector of state publications and makes a concerted effort to acquire and catalog most materials published by state and local governmental agencies.
The ASU Digital Repository provides access to digital SALAD publications, however the ASU Libraries’ non-digitized Arizona documents can be searched through the ASU Libraries Catalog. For additional assistance, Ask A Government Documents Librarian.
Publications issued by the Morrison Institute for Public Programs at Arizona State University are also available in PRISM, in the Morrison Institute for Public Policy - Publications Archive collection.

The Arizona Department of Health Services offers a vast array of programs that benefit every state resident and visitor. I like to remind people that we are with you from birth to death. In fact, we provide certificates for both events through our Office of Vital Records. If you drink the water, eat the food, require hospital or nursing home care or use a child care facility, the Arizona Department of Health Services has touched your life in some important way. Assuring the quality of our food and water, setting standards for hospitals and nursing home and child care, maintaining the State’s vital records, screening newborns for genetic diseases, protecting the public from disease and overseeing the state’s mental health system and Arizona State Hospital are just some of the duties of the Arizona Department of Health Services.
The Department is working toward sustaining current initiatives and simultaneously maintaining the flexibility to respond to new demands for affordable housing.

To lessen the impact of an influenza pandemic, the State of Arizona has created this Influenza Pandemic Response Plan to promote an effective response throughout the pandemic. The plan was originally crafted in 2000, through a coordinated effort of the Arizona Department of Health Services, Arizona Division of Emergency Management, local health departments and other partners and stakeholders. It is also an annex to the Arizona State Emergency Response and Recovery Plan.
A plan to improve the health of Arizonans over the next decade based upon the national Healthy People 2010 planning agenda using a unique community-based approach that is best suited to our large and
diverse state. While there are literally hundreds of health issues that are being addressed in Arizona, this plan focuses on twelve areas which health experts and communities themselves have agreed are of priority.
Each area includes strategies that ADHS and county and tribal health departments are involved with. But beyond those there are also many strategies designed to engage all sectors of the community: businesses, schools, fire and police, volunteer groups, religious organizations ... the list goes on!
