Scope and Content Note

This series consists of archival copies of the publicly accessible website of the New York State Office of Probation and Correctional Alternatives, which was created within the State Division of Criminal Justice Services in June 2010, and its predecessor entity, the Division of Probation and Correctional Alternatives. Several years after Probation and Correctional Alternatives was merged into the Division of Criminal Justice Services, its website was removed from the live Web and its content was integrated into the main website of the Division of Criminal Justice Services.

B2127-07: This accretion contains a copy of the Division of Probation and Correctional Alternatives site produced on April 12, 2007, shortly after Governor George E. Pataki (1995-2006) left office. It contains information about the state's probation system, rules and regulations issued by the division, community service (2005) and pretrial release (2007) standards, electronic monitoring procedures (2005), and statistical reports (2005-2006) concerning the number of probationers, closed probation cases, re-arrests, and in- and out-of-state transfers of probationers. Also present are annual reports (2005) of the division's Probation Eligible Diversion and Intensive Supervision programs, presentations, and directories of county probation departments and Alternatives to Incarceration programs. Information for people sentenced to probation is also included.

B2127-08: This accretion contains a copy of the Division of Probation and Correctional Alternatives Web site produced on May 23, 2008, shortly after the resignation of Governor Eliot L. Spitzer (2007-2008). Most of the information it contains is also present in the April 12, 2007 copy.

B2127-10: This accretion consists of a copy of the Office of Probation and Correctional Alternatives Web site produced on December 20, 2010, shortly before Governor David A. Paterson (2008-2010) left office. It contains updated information about the state's probation system, rules and regulations issued by the division, and additional statistical reports (2006-2008) concerning the number of probationers, closed probation cases, re-arrests, and in- and out-of-state transfers of probationers. Also present are newsletters (2002-2010), press releases (2004-2010), research bulletins (2007, 2009) concerning sex offenders, annual reports (2005) of the division's Probation Eligible Diversion and Intensive Supervision programs, presentations, and directories of county probation departments and Alternatives to Incarceration programs.
