Issues of "The SBI Report" magazine (of the "Scientific Bureau of Investigation") in the 1970s-1980s aimed to "convey a serious minded attitude". Many of the topics covered in issues of "The SBI Report" in that period are similar (possibly depressingly similar...) to current discussions about UFOs and ufology, including asking why UFO researchers/groups were not cooperating more, how much other nations (such as "Red China") might know about UFOs, how to improve international coordination of UFO research by governments (including via the United Nations) and attempts to improve the quality of UFO investigations.
James (Jim) R Leming has kindly given me permission to upload "The SBI Report" , which was edited by him and Peter Mazzola . Other people involved in this publication included some UFO researchers that remain well-known - including Peter Robbins, Antonio Huneeus and Colman VonKeviczky.
FOIA requests, and related petitions and legal proceedings, were a recurring theme in this publication, including items by Larry Fawcett and Barry Greenwood (the co-authors of the book "Clear Intent"), William H Spaulding of Ground Saucer Watch ("GSW") and making others involved in initial FOIA efforts relating to UFOs.
The AFU in Sweden helpfully scanned 41 issues of "The SBI Report". Barry Greenwood in the USA scanned the remaining 6 issues, completing the set.
