Reports & Publications
Obtaining Research Reports and Statistics
NACJD makes criminal justice data available to the public for secondary analysis. We do not produce published reports, statistics, charts, or other analyses based upon data holdings. However, users interested in such publications can search our Online Bibliography of Data-Related Literature for publications related to NACJD data collections (and ICPSR data collections in general).
Many of the publications listed there are available in either paper or electronic form from the National Criminal Justice Reference Service.
Users interested in reports using NACJD data and published by two of our sponsors, the Bureau of Justice Statistics and the National Institute of Justice, may be interested in the NACJD Citations Reporting page. The link to the Online Database searches a wider range of publications including articles and books; the link to Citations Reporting provides more flexible filtering of a narrower range of publications.
