Manage our extensive collection of official records.

Other Information:

The Department operates an ongoing program to manage its extensive collection of official records. A sizable staff of experts is engaged in reviewing documents, cable traffic, and other information to ensure proper disposition and to release as much information as possible to the public. The records the Department maintains are of great interest to professional historians and international affairs experts as well as to the general public. Accordingly, our records management activities receive high priority, and will be a key component of our Open Government work.
