Our mission

Free Government Information (FGI) is a place for initiating dialogue and building consensus among the various players (libraries, government agencies, non-profit organizations, researchers, journalists, etc.) who have a stake in the preservation of and perpetual free access to government information. FGI promotes free government information through collaboration, education, advocacy and research.

Sunshine Week Kick Off

Kicking off Sunshine Week, Senator Clinton answered the Sunshine Campaign Survey on open government.

And according to the 2008 Sunshine Week survey, 3/4 of American Adults view the federal government as secretive.

Did anyone happen to attend National FOI Day on Friday? I’ll have to check back on their website for a summary of what occurred. Speakers included J. William Leonard and Tom Blanton.

If you are in the D.C. area on Monday, March 17th, NARA is hosting a public meeting held by the Public Interest Declassification Board (PIDB) to solicit public reaction to its recent Report, “Improving Declassification”.
