One of the revisions included in The Electronic Freedom of Information Act Amendments of 1996 (E-FOIA) requires that federal agencies provide public access to government records electronically.

Currently the Reading Room contains nearly 22,000 documents (.pdf format), and the special interest library includes the CIA Creation Documents, the Amelia Earhart Collection, El Salvador Churchwomen Documents, the Guatemala Collection, and the Raoul Wallenberg Collection. Of course, the Reading Room provides a sophisticated and powerful search interface to assist inquisitive users.

"A Population Time Bomb" -- The Boston Globe Online
http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe2/039/editorials/A_population_time_bomb+.shtml
This week's In the News covers an important international conference on population and development. These nine resources provide background information, breaking news, social commentary, and primary materials. This week, official delegates representing governments and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) from over 180 nations are convening in The Hague, Netherlands, on the fifth anniversary of the United Nations International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD). The 1994 ICPD, held in Cairo, Egypt, has been lauded as one of the most successful global congresses ever, culminating with the unanimous endorsement of a comprehensive 20-year Programme of Action. Recognizing that individual health, rights, and well-being provide the foundation for sustainable development, the ICPD Programme of Action emphasizes the need for universal access to affordable reproductive health services, underscores the promotion of women's rights issues, and highlights the impact of the world's expanding population on the environment. This week's international forum, dubbed ICPD+5, will review and appraise the progress made worldwide since the implementation of the Cairo agenda. With world population expected to exceed six billion in 1999, the UN plans to hold several special sessions on population and development throughout the year, based on the findings unearthed at this week's ICPD+5.

The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) offers the most extensive resource on ICPD+5, providing background information, breaking news, and full-text reports and documents. Cairo+5, a site maintained by the Population Council -- a nonprofit, nongovernmental research organization -- includes a valuable guide and a report on ICPD and its current evaluation: the Guide to Research Findings on the Cairo Consensus, and From Cairo to Kayoro: Bringing Reproductive Health to a Village in Ghana. The Centre for Development and Population Activities (CEDPA) hosts a site that provides ICPD updates, taskforce information, media fact sheets, an electronic mailing list, and an interactive presentation (Flash) that gives a brief history of the ICPD process. The UN Population Information Network (POPIN) posts the full text of the ICPD Programme of Action, adopted by 179 countries in 1994. Population Action publishes Cairo Plus Five: A Bulletin for Journalists, produced by a network of US NGOs. The NGO Forum & Youth Forum on ICPD+5 site provides information from these two affiliated fora, which took place last weekend, preceding The Hague Forum. The Earth Times provides a special news section on ICPD+5 and is "the newspaper of record" at the conference. "Problems Impede Global Plan to Curb Population Growth" and "A Population Time Bomb" are recent newspaper articles that discuss the conference, published by The Washington Post and The Boston Globe, respectively.
