Abstract
MANY ORGANIZATIONS, INCLUDING THE NATIONAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFERENCE SERVICE, CAN BE OF ASSISTANCE TO THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE PRACTITIONER AND LOCATING THESE SOURCES OF INFORMATION CAN BE A PROBLEM. IT IDENTIFIES 48 ORGANIZATIONS - FROM THE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE OF THE U.S. COURTS, THROUGH NCJRS, TO THE VERA INSTITUTE OF JUSTICE - WHICH ARE INVOLVED IN SUCH ACTIVITIES AS EXPERIMENTS, DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS, AND PUBLICATIONS MANAGEMENT RELATING TO CRIMINAL JUSTICE. THERE IS A BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF EACH ORGANIZATION INCLUDING ADDRESS AND TELEPHONE NUMBER, PERSONS TO BE CONTACTED, A SUMMARY OF ITS PROGRAM AND A LIST OF PROJECTS, AND TITLES OF THE PUBLICATIONS ISSUED BY THAT ORGANIZATION. FUTURE EDITIONS ARE PLANNED TO UPDATE THIS SOURCE REFERENCE DOCUMENT. (SNI ABSTRACT)
