Electronic Reading Room

Under subsection (a)(2) of the FOIA, agencies must make four distinct categories of records affirmatively available for "public inspection and copying." These so-called "reading room" records consist of the following:
(1) Final opinions and orders rendered in the adjudication of administrative cases;

(2) Statements of policy that have been adopted by the agency;

(3) Administrative staff manuals and instructions to staff that affect a member of the public; and,

(4) Records disclosed in response to a FOIA request which "the agency determines have become or are likely to become the subject of subsequent requests for substantially the same records."
While the FOIA requires that TIGTA make available in its reading rooms only the above four categories of records, the agency may, at its discretion, include other types of records.

The FOIA requires that the reading room material be made available electronically as well as in paper format. TIGTA accomplishes this electronic availability through this FOIA website. TIGTA will make this website available in its public reading room at TIGTA’s National Headquarters, 1125 15th Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20005. This service is available by appointment only. To make an appointment, please call (202) 622-4068.
