Access to state and local public records

Citizens have a right to see and photocopy documents and records of government agencies, unless they are specifically exempted from disclosure under the law. A request to inspect or copy records may be made either orally or in writing. For purposes of documenting and clarifying the scope and timing of the request, it is a better practice to make the request in writing. An Open Records Request should be made directly to the custodian of the records that are sought.

If a government agency or officials withhold a public document from public inspection, they must cite the provision of law that exempts the record from being produced.

* The Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press offers help to file a records request from local agencies.

Tennessee has more than 200 exemptions to its open records laws, however.
