Does your work require you to stay on top of developments in policing? Do you sometimes struggle to remember the details of “that report” you saw two months ago and now you know you’d find useful? Does doing the “day job” make it difficult – or even impossible – to track what potentially relevant reports have been published today?
Help is at hand!
The organisation I lead, CoPaCC, monitors policing governance across the United Kingdom. We recently established PolicingInsight.com to publish more information on the governance, management and politics of policing, and have now started a “Media Monitor” service.
This service tracks mainstream, specialist and independent media, as well as Police and Crime Commissioner (and Panel) sites to identify the most relevant policing news, analysis, opinion and reports. Our researchers select key articles, reports and blogs and add metadata to allow the collation of information and insight by subject, region, organisation and timeframe.
We’ve just added elements that focus on recording and adding meta-data to relevant policing reports – see for example the screenshot at the top of this article.
We’ve also just added elements that focus on PCC decisions, and on their responses to Freedom of Information requests – see for example the screenshot at the foot of this article.
