opioidLit

The goal of opioidLit is to give easy access to the Opioid Industry Document Archives (“OIDA”).

About

According to OIDA’s website, “[t]he Opioid Industry Documents Archive was created by UCSF and Johns Hopkins University in 2021. It preserves and provides permanent public access to previously-internal corporate documents released from opioid litigation and other sources. The documents shed light on the opioid industry during the height of the U.S. opioid crisis.” As of September 27, 2022, the archive contained 8.9 million pages and 1.5 million documents.
