On July 4, 1967, the Freedom of Information Act was signed into law to assure public access to federal government files. Since this time, the public access effort has been strengthened by both Acts of Congress and Executive orders, resulting in hundreds of thousands of classified United States government documents now available for public view. After 1974, as thousands of previously classified United States government documents were declassified, the Declassified Documents Reference System was developed to organize the tremendous volume of material and to make it easily accessible to researchers. Declassified Documents Reference System has become a major and highly respected source of information about United States post-World War II domestic policy and international relations. It remains the only compilation of materials that are recorded as they are released by United States government agencies, the National Archives and Presidential Libraries. Declassified Documents Reference System contains over 78,000 documents, constituting more than 450,000 pages of material and is an unprecedented research tool for researchers, political scientists and policymakers around the world. Declassified Documents Reference System enables users to examine documents originating from a wealth of United States government official bodies and agencies, including:
Covering major international events from the Cold War to the Vietnam War and beyond, this single source enables users to locate key information underpinning studies in international relations, American studies, United States Foreign and Domestic Policy Studies, journalism and more. Information relating to all major political and military events from every corner of the globe since World War II offers fascinating insight into government viewpoints, activities and decisions. The information will also deepen the user's understanding of the inner workings of United States domestic affairs involving both the military and the White House. Documents included in Declassified Documents Reference System were inaccessible for review until after their release, therefore, the information they provide often offers completely new perspectives and understandings of important events. Not only do they confirm, refute or expand contemporary military coverage of post World War II trends and events, but they also encourage critical re-evaluation of previously published memoirs or other subjective writings. Review:"The site is easy to navigate...This resource is
an important reference tool that contains an extensive amount of
original documents. It is highly recommended for all academic libraries
that support disciplines such as International Relations, Political
Science, History, and Economics." -------- Original Message -------- >Subject: free multi-database access during April > > >ALL: >http://access.gale.com/nlw2006/itshere.html > >Declassified Documents Reference System: >http://www.gale.com/servlet/ItemDetailServlet?region=9&imprint=000&titleCode=INFO8&cf=n&type=4&id=172030 > >or > >http://tinyurl.com/qnmxl > > > > > -- No virus found in this incoming message.
