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.

FUil details of investigation by British Unidentified Flying Object Research
Association (BU FORA) of E. A. Bryant•s claim that on April 24, 1965, near
Scoriton, England, he encountered three individuals from a landed extra-
terrestrial spacecraft, one of whom told him, "My name is Yamski" (George
Adamski having died April 23, there being suggested reincarnation).
Chambers, Howard V. UFOs for the millions. Los Angeles, Sherbourne Press,
Inc., 1967. 158 p.
Book discusses UFO sightings, the persons who made them, the persons who
made evaluations of the sightings, and what people who think they've made
actual contacts with aliens think these sightings mean.
Clark, Jerome. A contact claim. Flying saucer review, v. 11, Jan. -Feb. 1965:
30-32.
Noting the way in which the "beings" associated with the 1897 "airship" sight-
ings seemed interested in reinforcing the belief that the craft was of
mundane origin, the author concludes that the extraterrestrials either were
engaged in some unknown activity in which they did not want their real
identity made known, or that they chose to hide their existence realizing
that the comparative unsophistication of nineteenth century Americans would
not permit them to accept the interplanetary answer.
----- The meaning of contact. Flying saucer review, v. ll, Sept. -Oct. 1965:
28-29.
Speculating that the UFO beings might put a false cover over their activities
so as to keep officialdom or anyone else from coming close to the truth,
the author suggests that contact claims become a tool with a two-fold purpose:
to discourage legitimate inquiry into the saucer field by making it look
ridiculous, and to instill false ideas into the minds of those who do go to
investigate the subject.
----- Two new contact claims. Flying saucer review, v. 11, May-June 1965: 20-23.
On January 26, 1965, a landed flying saucer and its 3 1/2 ft. occupants were
allegedly seen near Brands Flats, Virginia. On January 30, 1965, TV
repairman Sid Padrick allegedly encountered a landed flying saucer and was
invited aboard by its crew members.
