Designed as a reference guide for administrators, planners, researchers and others interested in criminal justice statistical development, particularly with respect to the Canadian Province of Alberta, this bibliography provides citations for about 700 published and unpublished items.
Abstract
All areas of adult criminal justice at all levels of government are included; juvenile justice references have been excluded. The citations are divided into five sections: social indicators, performance indicators, criminal justice statistics and information systems, criminal justice performance indicators, and criminal justice statistics bibliographies. While the first two sections focus on broad areas of indicator development, the last three areas are concerned specifically with the criminal justice statistical development area. Within each section, the citations are listed alphabetically by author or sponsoring agency, with the exception of LEAA documents, most of which are grouped in the statistics and information systems section. No annotations, abstracts, or availability information are provided.
