Whatever you’re trying to learn about the world―as a journalist or as an informed citizen― public records often hold the key. But what records, where? And how to get them?

The Art of Access: Strategies for Acquiring Public Records, Second Edition is a how-to guide for putting the law into action and using ingenuity to pry records loose.
