The second section of the CD-ROM explains that the Sex Offender Public Registry Web site allows all States and territories to share public sex offender data free-of-charge with citizens nationwide. A link to the Web site is provided. The third section of the CD-ROM contains a series of 21 documents designed to assist grantees. Resources include information on building exchange content using the Global Justice XML Data Model; improving public safety through justice information sharing; integrating criminal justice information systems; and optimizing State investments for justice information sharing. The fourth section of the CD-ROM presents a collection of success stories from the Department of Justice's Grant Program, the Global Justice XML Data Model, the Pennsylvania Justice Network, and the JNET Global JXDM. The final CD-ROM section contains one monograph on how to enhance local efforts to engage in justice information systems integration. The resources contained on the CD-ROM are also available on the Office of Justice Programs IT Initiatives Web site.
