Twenty editions of the litigation manual were published by the American Civil Liberties Union, the last in 1997. Members of the Freedom of Information Act litigation community were becoming increasingly restive as a new edition did not appear. So the ACLU signed over copyright to the James Madison Project, which worked with the Electronic Privacy Information Center to publish an updated edition. It is for plaintiffs seeking disclosure under the US Freedom of Information Act, the Privacy Act, the Government in the Sunshine Act, and the Federal Advisory Committee Act. It is not indexed.
