The purpose of the Directory is to inform criminal justice practitioners and scholars of the existence and locations of published research by criminal justice agencies oper'ating in New York State. It is hoped that the dissemination and sharing of information among these agencies will be fostered by the publication of this Directory. It contains 42 agency entries and provides summaries of approximately 367 documents created and/or distributed by these agencies. Primary emphasis has been placed on listing documents having a quantitative, analytic focus. Annual reports, and descriptive pamphlets have also been included in the Directory. Documents dated before 1976 have been excluded. While no claims are made that the list of organizations contained in the Directory is exhaustive, efforts have been made to include as many relevant groups as possible. Using an agency mailing list maintained at DCJS, the Clearinghouse Coordinator sent a letter introducing the concept of the Directory and soliciting appropri ate entries from approximately 100 agenci es operat'ing in New York State. ~----- - -- -- »~ __-, • .::..••"..:.-r ___~~ ______ -2- -3- This included all State-level agencies and all New York City agencies having a agency's publications are also listed alphabetically.

Moore Inthe sixty years of its existence, the National Bureau of Economic Research has been continuously engaged in studies of business cycles. Among the most widely used results of that program are the chro- nologies of periods of general economic expansion and contraction in the United States and several other countries. These are lists of an- nual, quarterly, and monthly dates that mark the peaks (signaling the start of recessions) and troughs (which signal the beginning of recov- eries). For the United States, England, France, and Germany, these "reference chronologies" extend back more than 130 years. The following is a brief report on the most recent NBER work in this area. On June 3, 1980, the Bureau's Committee on Business Cycle Dating issued a statement identifying January 1980 as the lat- est peak in the sequence of U.S. business cycles.' At the time no cyclical peak in real GNP had yet been recorded; indeed, that series had continued to increase to the first quarter of the year (1980:1).
