Clinton Presidential Library
1200 President Clinton Avenue
Little Rock, AR 72201
Inventory for FOIA Request 2006-0463-F
Records of Paul Glastris, Speechwriter
Extent
116 folders, approximately 6,000 pages
Access
Collection is open to all researchers. Access to Clinton Presidential Records is governed by the
Presidential Records Act (PRA) (44 USC 2201) and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5 USC
552, as amended) and therefore records may be restricted in whole or in part in accordance with legal
exemptions.
Copyright
Documents in this collection that were prepared by officials of the United States government as part of
their official duties are in the public domain. Researchers are advised to consult the copyright law of the
United States (17, USC 101) which governs the making of photocopies or other reproductions of
copyrighted material.
Provenance
Official records of William Jefferson Clinton’s presidency are housed at the Clinton Presidential Library
and administered by the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) under the provisions of
the Presidential Records Act (PRA).
Processed by
Staff Archivist, 2008. Previously restricted materials are added as they are released.
Scope and Content
The materials in FOIA 2006-0463-F are a selective, not necessarily all inclusive, body of documents
responsive to the topic of the FOIA. Researchers should consult the archivist about related materials.
Paul Glastris served as President Clinton’s primary speechwriter from September 1998 until the end of
his administration in early 2001. FOIA request 2006-0463-F consists of speech drafts, magazine and
newspaper articles, handwritten notes, memoranda, correspondence, and statistical material. In addition,
most of the speech drafts contain comments, additions, and deletions. It should be noted that many of
these records were utilized by Glastris in the composition of Clinton’s speeches. Also, there are many
copies of remarks by previous Presidents that Glastris clearly relied on when he wrote out Clinton’s
oratorical flourishes.

�System of Arrangement
Records that were responsive to this FOIA request were found in one collection area—Clinton
Presidential Records: White House Staff and Office Files. As policy, Staff and Office Files are
processed at the folder level. That is, individual documents are not selected and removed from a folder
for processing. While this method maintains folder integrity, it frequently results in the incidental
processing of documents that are not wholly responsive to the subject area.
The following is a list of documents and folders processed in response to FOIA 2006-0463-F:
