From:
Hi
I am so happy to hear the request. I am looking into how to cover the costs of copying.
I have a few questions:
1. Can copies be delivered electronically? Some of the documentation is computer code so if it could be copied electronically with OCR that would be great.
2. Can I request some samples of certain documents just to assess whether I would pay for the entirety of the copy?
3. What is the rules around publishing this information. This research is for a book at MIT Press so my hope would be to publish some of this material.
4. I am an academic in Canada. Are there any NARA exemptions in this case?
Thanks again for working through the backlog to get to this request!
Be good,
Fenwick

Hi Lisa,
If I made my way to California, could I review these files in person?
Could I request these documents for now?
