available at cost.

feasibility of developing a world union list of serials relating to
criminal justice will be investigated, and the list constructed if
possible.

means of sharing accession lists of each participating library will be
devised.

Data. Disseminate, through on line data bases and other means, national
and international crime statistics and criminal justice profiles.

Assist in identifying other networks, whether international,
governmental, commercial, or academic, and facilitate access to them.
