Standardised alcohol and other drug (AOD) screening and withdrawal tools are crucial for early prevention, intervention and client/patient safety. Over the past decade, several documents have been produced that synthesise AOD screening and brief intervention assessment tools. 

However, there was no online, central location where Australian AOD services could readily access these instruments. There was a need for a specific online collection of commonly used AOD screening and assessment tools, along with a description of each tool’s utility.
