This is Government Attic's posting of a 1969 Library of Congress annotated bibliography, UFOs and Related Subjects, compiled by Lynn E. Catoe for the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. The Defense Technical Information Center released it under FOIA in November 2014. The bibliography lists more than 1,600 items and was requested to support the University of Colorado UFO study led by Edward U. Condon. Its preface concludes that no simple, single explanation of the UFO phenomenon applies to all cases.

the skies of the world are of two kinds: (1) extraterrestrial sJ:Qcecraft under
the int~lligent control of human or humanoid pilots; and (2) amoeboid,
self-luminous creatures of circular shape--resembling m·Jlluscs of the
ocean--who exist in the heat state, are metallic, maneuver intelligently,
and are their own energy source.

Author postulates that reevaluation of the UFO phenomenon is needed:
"Blanket terms, such as the 'sJ:Qce peo9le1 need to be eliminated, and
careful attention paid not only to the invisible animals that fly in our air,
but to the various orders of beings who either visit us or who have their
natural habitat in invisible domains surrounding and inter penetrating our
own."
