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.

M.iaer, E. C. Correspondence: ethics and space travel. Spaceflight, v. 4, July
1962: 139.
With the a priori assumption that intelligent extraterrestrial life may exist,
three statements of ethical conduct are urged for discussion and adaptation:
(1) no contact would be made with intelligent life not possessing spaceflight
capability; (2) no sectarian or belligerent views or acts would be made without
common understanding; (3) no artifact or specimen not within the technical com-
petence of both parties woult' be exchanged.
O'Brien, Barbara. Operators and things: the inner life of a schizophrenic. Cam-
bridge, Arlington Bookro:, Inc. [ 1959] 166 p.
In her effort to understand how she suddenly entered a world of hallucinatory
characters in which the reasoning mechanism had been fogged and the uncon-
scious mind was in control, the author presents an account of our present
state of knowledge and ignorance about schizophrenia. Account has same
similarities to reports by UFO "contactees."

Ted Serios has apparent ability to produce photographs of places he has never
