�Management System (ARMS) Emails; Clinton Presidential Records: Tape Restoration Project (TRP)
Emails. As policy, Staff and Office files are processed at the folder level, that is, individual folders 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 Automated Records Management System (ARMS) Email is a database that contains email records
of the Executive Office of the President. This system maintained unclassified Presidential Records
email. The ARMS dataset is comprised of 6 sub-series of email records called “Buckets.” The buckets
include NPR, OPD, POTUS, WHO, CEA, and Default. ARMS emails are arranged chronologically by
creation date.
The Tape Restoration Project (TRP) is a database consisting of restored emails from the Automated
Records Management System from July 1994 through June of 2000. The TRP is a database that
contains email records of the Executive Office of the President. This system maintained unclassified
Presidential record email. The TRP dataset is comprised of 6 sub-series of email records called
“Buckets.” The buckets include NPR, OPD, POTUS, WHO, CEA, and Default. ARMS emails are
arranged chronologically by creation date.
