NIST/NIJ Evidence Management Steering Committee (2025). Evidence management steering committee report: Expanded bibliography. National Institute of Standards and Technology. https://doi.org/10.6028/NIST.SP.1500-33C
In 2018 in conjunction with the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) assembled a group of multidisciplinary experts, the Evidence Management Steering Committee (EMSC), to develop a plan to (1) provide recommendations for the retention, preservation, integrity, and disposition of evidence and property and (2) encourage the adoption of practice improvements, through education and engagement, of the broad community of U.S. justice system stakeholders involved in evidence management. The EMSC oversaw four major activities: an evidence management survey (NIST SP 1500-33B), a review of existing literature in forensic evidence management (this bibliography); a stakeholder workshop; and the dissemination of findings from these activities (NIST SP 1500-33A and https://doi.org/10.18434/mds2-3834, which provides the survey data).
RTI shares its evidence-based research - through peer-reviewed publications and media - to ensure that it is accessible for others to build on, in line with our mission and scientific standards.
