by name
Although the Freedom of Information Act has been in effect since
1967, it did not apply to these files of investigation compiled
for law enforcement purposes, thus generally exempting FBI files
from public access. By the end of 1975, amendments to the Freedom
of Information Act and the Privacy Act of 1974 had become effective.
The passage of these laws provided for broad access to FBI records
previously limited. Portions have been blacked out to protect personal
privacy, confidential sources, national security, etc., in accordance
with the exemption provisions of the FOIA.
The FBI Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Reading Room is located
within the J. Edgar Hoover Building at FBI Headquarters, Washington,
D.C. Pages of frequently requested FBI documents that have been
released under the provisions of the FOIA are housed in the Reading
Room. The FBI has converted many of these documents to an electronic
format (PDF), and they may be viewed on website http://foia.fbi.gov/foiaindex.htm
In the case of voluminous pages, only summaries or excerpts from
the documents are on-line.
