Foia Reading Room Documents

Documents from federal FOIA reading rooms and Inspector General report libraries: audits, inspections, investigative summaries and records released under the Freedom of Information Act.

Every document here was published by a US federal agency and is a work of the United States government. Nothing has been altered: files are byte-identical to what the agency posted, and the checksum in metadata.parquet is of the original bytes.

Why this exists

Agencies publish these documents on their own sites, then move, re-number or remove them. SAM.gov attachments in particular disappear when a notice is archived. Keeping a copy makes them citable and lets people work with the corpus in bulk rather than one PDF at a time.

Layout

documents/<source>/<doc_id>.pdf
metadata.parquet

metadata.parquet has one row per document: source, agency, title, posted date, the URL it came from, the page it was linked from, byte size, page count and a SHA-256 of the file.

Provenance

Collected from agency FOIA libraries and Office of Inspector General report listings, following each site's robots.txt.

Collected with govdocs.
