SUBJECT : Intelligence Museum
1. I hope within the next few weeks to establish a program for
conserving and, when appropriate, exhibiting material which has
been significant in the development of CIA and its operations, before
such material is lost or dispersed.
2. In order to accomplish this, I intend to appoint an Intelligence
Museum Commission, which will be responsible for establishing and
then supervising the following program:
a. Identifying, cataloguing and conserving documents, photo-
graphs, hardware and other materiel, and miscellaneous memo-
rabilia which have been significant in the development of CIA
and its operations;
b. Arranging for their progressive declassification on terms
agreed to by whichever directorate used the material operationally;

c. Exhibiting the material when exhibition would have a
salutary effect on employee morale, on training, or on special
problems the Director identifies.
3. The Commission will be responsible to the Executive Director,
but as noted in 2b above, it must also be responsible to the operational
security needs of each of the directorates. Therefore, I am asking
each of you to nominate one member to the Commission. Also, I would
like to have your nominations for advisers to represent each unit within
your directorate which may have a special stake in assembling a historical
collection of intelligence materials. NPIC, TSD, and OC seem to me to be
such units, particularly because most of them already have developed
similar programs on their own.
4. I plan to appoint a Chairman who would in addition be responsible
for being cognizant of the interests in these regards of the independent
units in the Director's Office. Furthermore, I believe there should be
at least three ex officio members. 'At this time, I have in mind the Agency
Historian, the Curator of the CIA Historical Intelligence Collection, and
a representative of the Fine Arts Commission, the last in order to
establish coordination between these two Commissions. The Agency's
Historical Staff will act as Secretariat for the Intelligence Museum Com-
mission.

 5. I do not intend that the Intelligence Museum Commission
should take physical possession of all material that it identifies and
catalogues for the historical collection. Offices which have the space
and interest in housing their own historical material may retain cus-
tody of it so long as it remains available to the Intelligence Museum
Cormission and is not destroyed or dispersed without the Commission's
sanction. Finally, the functions assigned to the Commission shall in no
way interfere with the historical and archival (records management)
functions already assigned in the Agency.
