Good questions, sorry if I'm useless in regards to the archive stuff... BUT, I can tell you what F.O.I.A. stands for:
Freedom of Information Act.
It allows for release of certain documents held by the gov.
F.O.I.A.
An example would be how authors & investigators procured documents for research and writing pertaining to the JFK assassination. (Of course, many pages had entire sections of paragraphs blacked out.)!

I checked on a thread in the FOIA document forum (separate from the FOIA Working Forum, which is restricted for reading as well as writing) and the moderator there appears to be JacKatMtn, so you might want to u2u him to ask about the process

Thanks SD... NovusOrdoMundi and i were U2Uing back and forth yesterday and he offered to look into the details. He also mentioned Jack as the main contact. Based on what he was saying, when a FOIA comes along of interest to the ATS community, a copy is made available via the FOIA Working Forum where only Document Archivists can review and write up synopsis's before it's filed away in the Government Document Archive for general member access and added commentary.
