MOR.ANDUM FOR: CHAIRMAN, INTELLIGENCE ADVISORY COMMITTEE
SUBJECT: Documentation and Processing of Intelligence Information (U)
1. The Office, Assistant Chief of Staff, G-2, is exploring
means of improving intelligence library service and information
processing. Other agencies have similar problems and are making
similar efforts. All of us appreciate the value of working to-
gether, but at working levels the problems of an individual agency
are paramount. It is recognized that uncoordinated working of the
same ground by a number of agencies is at least partly wasteful and
the operation of several incompatible systems by various agencies
would be uneconomical and inefficient.
2. Independent, or partly coordinated, studies are in progress
in several agencies. These point toward independent recommendations
on basic system and method which will have far-reaching effect upon
agency operations and relationships. Mm., it is evident that a
documentation and processing problem exists which should be recognized
formally and coordinated at the policy-making level in order to serve
best the needs of the intelligence family of agencies.
3. It is recommended that the IAC establish a Sub-Committee on
Information Processing for the purpose of giving policy-level support
and coordinated guidance to the development of compatible improvements
in the documentation and processing of information by member agencies.
