Federal officials remove Jackson documents from UW

Tuesday, February 22, 2005  Seattle Post Intelligencer

Five federal officials, including three from the CIA, have removed
several documents from the archival papers of the late Sen. Henry M.
"Scoop" Jackson at the University of Washington, according to The
Associated Press.

The federal document-security team spent three days in the special
collections division of the UW's Suzzallo-Allen Library last week.

The group, which included staff from the U.S. Energy and Defense
departments, went through 1,200 boxes of material using a five-binder
index to find the targeted papers.

Carla Rickerson, head of special collections, said the team removed no
more than 10 documents. She would not disclose the exact number of
papers or their subject matter, citing UW privacy policies.
