AGENCY PUBLICATIONS BOARD
1. The first meeting of the Agency Publications Board,
which was appointed to look into and evaluate certain questions
raised by the DCI regarding CIA publications, met on 28 March
1966 with all members present.
2. The responsibility of the Board was reviewed and the
various problems involved were the subject of a general discussion.
Some of the points discussed were:
a. The committee hoped that its immediate
investigation could be limited to: (1) fixed time publica-
tions, i. e., daily, weekly, monthly, etc.; and (2) periodic
publications either in a series or on the same general
subject but without a fixed time for issuance.
b. USIB committees jurisdiction over publications
and the desirability of expanding the jurisdiction of these
committees to include recommendations concerning
duplication, necessity, merger and discontinuation of
publications.
c. Since the NIS is under the direct supervision
of a ITSIB committee, we hoped to exclude the NIS from
this survey.
d. The Board's jurisdiction is limited to CIA,
however the problem is interagency in nature. We recog-
nized the necessity of John Bross' assistance on the inter-
agency side after we had completed our homework.
e. The cost of printing a publication is easy to
determine, however the cost in manpower is very difficult
to arrive at and in some instances is at best a guess
estimate.
f.. In discussing merger of two publications that
include broad duplication of intelligence but one of which,

with a more limited distribution, includes highly classified
information, it was found that two separate detachable
sections were not readable. The problem being that neither
is complete and the individuals who receive the limited
distribution section containing highly classified information
would have to lay both sections side by side to get all the
information on any particular subject.
g. The DC I's question of why the distribution of
a publication cannot be set out was discussed with the fol-
lowing results:
The distribution can be either printed in
most publications or included in a cover memorandum to
the DCI on others. This may not be sufficient since we
believe the DCI wanted to know if a specific high level
individual got the publication. This we do not know. In
some instances when it is highly desirable for a high level
distribution to be reasonably insured, the publication is
transmitted to those individuals by a letter signed by the
DDCI or the DCI. The Board felt that we could devise means
to reasonably comply with the DCI's desires but we could
never assure him that a particular individual actually saw
the document.
h. The Chairman pointed out theDirector's concern
about the security of our documents in other departments
and agencies. He outlined what he had done so far on this
problem. It was agreed that while the security phase was
the problem of the Chairman, he would review progress
with the Board to get their observations.
3. The next meeting set for 4 April 1966.
