Who Needs to Know? - The State of Public Access to Federal Government Information (Paperback)

This important new book will help readers begin to assess the impact of the various trends and forces on the ability to find, obtain, and use federal government information. It reviews the recent history of withdrawn access, including the Freedom of Information Act and other relevant legislation, and details the controls that have been imposed on public access in a variety of arenas.
