This is a selective list of publications at SAIS Library which contain statistics on a variety of subjects. It is generally confined to titles which are updated annually, or more frequently. With the exception of Canada, China, the U.S., and Russia, statistical publications for individual countries are not included.
To find out if the library has a statistical publication on a particular country, look in the JHU Libraries Catalog under the name of the country and the sub-heading Statistics (e.g., Japan-Statistics or Japan -- Economic Conditions - Statistics). Each title is listed on this page only once, under its major subject, but remember that statistical volumes often cover more than one subject. This bibliography is arranged according to the subject categories below; within each category, titles are listed alphabetically.
