Dear Mr. Knox:
Thank you for submitting your Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request
about records on the Industrial Workers of the World to the National
Archives and Records Administration (NARA), via the *FOIAOnline* website.
We received your request on March 13, 2019.
This office handles FOIA and Privacy Act requests for the National Archives
and Records Administration's *operational *records (records created by this
agency). Because your *FOIAOnline *request is for records that may be
*archival *records (records that were created by or originated in a
different agency but that may have been transferred to the legal custody of
NARA), we have forwarded it to our *Office of Research Services, Special
Access and FOIA* staff who handle FOIA requests for archival records.
Since the *Office of Research Services, Special Access and FOIA* does not
process FOIA requests through *FOIAOnline*, your request has been removed
from the *FOIAOnline* website and you will be assigned a new tracking
number by that office within the next 20 business days. If you would like
to follow up with that office directly, please contact them at the address
below, or electronically via email.

offer to the public, and you can access our online catalog. We encourage
you to look at our online catalog before making a request. That helps you
narrow down your search to what may actually be responsive and in our
custody. In the future, if you have FOIA requests for records that may be
archival records, you can send those requests directly to Special Access
and FOIA at their email address above. NARA is specifically authorized
under a separate fee statute, 44 U.S.C. Section 2116(c) to charge fees for
copying archival records. As a result, archival records are exempt from

Dear Mr. Knox,
This is in response to your March 13, 2019 Freedom of Information Act
request (RD #60694) concerning "all files, investigation findings, reports,
memorandums, or correspondence relating to the Industrial Workers of the
World..." Your request was received by our office on March 14, 2019.
We make reasonable efforts to assist researchers with their work. Given the
limitations on staff resources, we do not generally conduct substantive
research in response to requests, except in circumstances where documents
are easily locatable.
Based on your inquiry, we conducted a review of the Department of Justice
General Name Index to Litigation Case Files, in Record Group 60. Please
note that there were many index cards for Industrial Workers of the World.
We have attached the index cards that reference the general cases, however,
the box (885) does include additional cards for I.W.W. chapters in various
states or related to specific industries.
The DOJ cases referenced on these index cards are Straight Numerical Files
and Duplex Numeric Files. The numbers on the index cards represent the DOJ
case file number.
The *Straight Numerical Files* comprise the bulk of DOJ general files
created and maintained from 1904-1937. The full body of records is
approximately 6000 containers; however, the material is roughly indexed
among several other series. This series consists of general correspondence
files of both letters received and sent. From 1904 to 1912 these files were
the only Department of Justice central files. The Department of Justice no
longer initiated new Straight Numerical Files after 1914, but documents
were added to some files until 1974. Each case or subject was given a
consecutive number when the first papers on it were filed with no
distinction as to class, nature, or subject.
The *Duplex Numeric cases* represent cases opened after 1914; the system
that is based on a formal, standard set of numerical codes. The primary
numbers (one, two, or three digits) are usually identified with federal
laws or administrative subjects. It is important to note that though NARA
does hold some divisional indexes, locating specific individuals is
difficult due to this arrangement scheme.
The responsive case files are open. We would be happy to make them
available in our Textual Research Room here at NARA College Park.
Investigatory case files from this time period are in the custody of the
National Archives at College Park. Records of the Bureau of Investigation
(predecessor of the FBI) are located in Record Group 65: Records of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation. The BOI case files c.1908-1922 were
accessioned to the National Archives on microfilm. The microfilm
publication is M1085; we have attached the descriptive pamphlet for your
reference.* Bureau of Investigation *files are arranged in four schemes—the
Bureau Section Files, Mexican Files, Old German Files, Miscellaneous File.
The reels have been made available online via our digital partner, Fold3.
Therefore, we do not make these available for access in our Microfilm
Reading Room. While Fold3 does require a subscription, the site is
available for free at NARA facilities.
We do not consider this a denial of your FOIA request. However, if you are
not satisfied with our action on this request, your options for appeal and
dispute resolution are outlined in the attached enclosure.
Sincerely,
--

From: Liam Knox
Hi Haley,
Thank you for getting back to me with this information! I'd like to just confirm that there is no way you can duplicate the responsive documents and send them digitally? If not, since I am not able to travel to college park anytime soon, I would like to see if MuckRock could send a volunteer in my stead to examine the documents, duplicate them and then send them to me. The index cards and records listings are only useful to me insofar as I could explore the archives, so no responsive documents were actually sent, despite your acknowledgment of their existence. Because of the difficulty inherent in me traveling from Boston to Maryland, I would consider this an inappropriate denial of my request in the event that the alternatives I proposed above are not possible, so please let me know ASAP so I can get in touch with a volunteer, or file an appeal.
Best,
Liam Knox

Dear Liam Knox:
Ms. Maynard provided a response [19-25093] on March 19, 2019 to your FOIA
request of March 12, 2019. Please let us know if you'd like us to resend
that response.
In response to your follow up email, generally speaking you have three
options (see below) for obtaining access and copies of records in our
holdings. At the present moment we are closed to the public due to
COVID-19, but when we reopen you have the possible options available to
you. If you were to ask for a reproduction quote we ask that you provide
the DOJ case file numbers you are interested in having copied.
1. You can visit the National Archives in College Park, MD in person.
The Textual Reference Archives II Branch (RDT2) is located at 8601 Adelphi
Road, College Park, MD, near the University of Maryland--College Park
campus. Prior to your visit, please consult our web site at
http://www.archives.gov/dc-metro/college-park/,
http://www.archives.gov/dc-metro/self-service-copying.html, and
http://www.archives.gov/research/start/getting-started.pdf.
2. You can request a price quote for select documents. To take advantage
of this assistance, researchers must pay our current fee for paper or
digital copies of $0.80 per page with a minimum mail order fee of
$20.00. *Price quotes require your full name and your
mailing/postal/billing/shipping address**.* Should you wish to use this
service please send an email to archives2reference@nara.gov with a
*billing/shipping
address*.
3. Otherwise, you can send a representative to perform research on your
behalf or hire a private researcher if you do not already have a
representative to visit in your stead. The history departments at some
of the local universities may be able to help you. A list of private
researchers who are familiar with National Archives facilities is available
on our web site at http://www.archives.gov/research/hire-help/index.html.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and pursuant to guidance received from the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB), NARA has adjusted its normal
operations to balance the need of completing its mission-critical work
while also adhering to the recommended social distancing for the safety of
our staff. As a result of this re-prioritization of activities, we are
unable to a schedule research visit or provide a reproduction quote at this
time. We apologize for this inconvenience and appreciate your understanding
and patience.
We welcome you to resubmit your request to archives2reference@nara.gov when
the National Archives more fully resumes operations. You can email us
directly, and we will be pleased to assist. For updates on our status,
please visit https://www.archives.gov/college-park.
We hope this information assists you.
Sincerely,

Hello,
It appears our office forwarded his original request in 2019 to your office
(possibly Special Access and it was forwarded to your office). It appears
it may have been closed. Can you provide him with an update, either
letting him know it has been closed or where it is in the queue.
I thought he was asking about an appeal but we don't have one for him.
