The first KSR dataset consists of 460 California Law Enforcement Agency Policy and Training Manuals: https://www.eff.org/sb978-Apr2021. These police manuals are publicly accessible through our Digital Repository to a comma delimited .csv file containing the name, agency type, city, county, and URLs at https://purl.stanford.edu/yf700bp8218. This collection is valuable for data mining, tracking reforms and empowering civilians to identify police misconduct as expressed in their written procedures. The KSR's police collection is being duplicated by Howard University’s Law Library which is just one of our partners at HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities).

Public records
Public records
Any person has the right to access public records maintained by government agencies, including the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). As the Legislature stated in enacting the California Public Records Act, "access to information concerning the conduct of the people's business is a fundamental and necessary right of every person in this state."
