on notes of documents:

I would start each one as "NSC memo" or "NSC notes" (whichever seems more appropriate) and then a
title such as "Agenda for. . ."or "Summary of Conclusions o f . . . " and then the date of the document
(which may be the same as or different from the date of the meeting).

How about a summary of a meeting? The CSG's were called "summary of conclusions." Perhaps:
NSC document, "Summary of Conclusions of May 4, 1999 Meeting"
or maybe
NSC summary of conclusions, May 4,1999
Thanks.

Yes, call it an NSC memo or NSC notes. You should spell out CSG the first time it appears in the
endnotes in your section, followed by "(CSG)," and then you can use CSG for the rest of the section.

I see that the CSG is referred to in the text of 3.4 as "CSG" rather than being spelled out.
And should I call a CSG agenda an NSC document? I presume so, but thought I should check. I could
put "CSG" in the title of the document, if I call it an NSC document.

I would clean up the capitalization, but I would not add the colon, thus "Urgent re UBL"
Wherever you are relying on notes and not the original document, please put "[[notes only]]" or
something similar in bold at the end so that we know that someone still needs to look at the underlying
document.

Subject: another question
The title of an email is given as "urgent re ubl." Can I clean that up to be "Urgent re: UBL"? Also, I don't
have the original of the email but rather Alexis' or Warren's notes, so the lower-case version may just be
her or his shorthand.

If you think there is a subject line, I would put "[title]" in bold as a place marker, so that we know to
look for the title when we make a trip to look at the actual documents. Or you could put a description
of the cable, not in quotes, in place of the title - such as CIA cable, Islamabad 1234, Update on UBL,
Jan. 15, 2000. Or you could leave a title out completely if Alexis or Warren don't think there was a
title. I would not say "untitled."

Subject: Another question
For some cables on which Alexis and/or Warren took notes, they did not write down the subject line of the
cable. So I just leaving out the title completely, rather than saying "untitled" (as there may indeed be a
title on the actual document). Is that ok? Thanks.

Based on the problems with duplicate last names, input from Philip, and discussions with some of you
today, attached is a revised list of endnote examples. The changes are (1) using first and last names
for interviews, etc., rather than just last names; (2) putting the date of a Commission interview in
parens rather than set off by a comma, thus "Richard Clarke interview (Jan. 11, 2004)."; (3) rather
than try to make the fuzzy distinction between classified reports that are "published" and just regular
reports, treat all classified reports as unpublished because they are not available to the public, thus
"FBI report, "Summary of Penttbom Investigation," Feb. 29, 2004, pp. 20-29." and "CIA analytical
report, "The Plot and the Plotters," June 1, 2003, p. 5."; (4) some particular changes for CIA
documents such as SEIBs and NIDs; and (5) calling Powerpoint and similar slide shows the more
generic "briefing materials." After further discussion with Raj, I have not included serial numbers for
FBI documents.
As always, your comments and additions are welcome. Although I will resist changes to forms already
decided, I'm sure this will be a bit of a living document.

Notes
To help distinguish government documents from published materials, we have cited such
unpublished documents with abbreviated dates (e.g., 30 Nov 89 for November 30, 1989).
Telegrams to or from American embassies are cited by what the State Department calls message
reference numbers, usually accompanied by the subject line of the message and always accom-
panied by the date of transmission. So, for example, State 306045, "Meeting in Moscow," 27 Jun
90, would be a telegram sent overseas from the State Department, with the given, subject line,
on June 27, 1990. Brussels 4567 gives the number of a telegram sent to Washington by the
American embassy in Brussels, just as EmbBerlin 4567 would be the number of a telegram sent
to Washington by the American embassy in East Berlin (the embassy in West Germany was in
Bonn). "Secto" means a telegram sent to Washington by the secretary of state's traveling party.
"USBerlin" is the American mission in West Berlin, "USNATO" the American mission to the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization headquarters in Brussels. All U.S. government memoranda
are cited in this form: [name, not title, of official author] to [name of addressee], "[subject line,
if any]," date memo was sent.
Bureaus of the State Department also have standardized abbreviations. EUR is the Bureau for
European and Canadian Affairs. EUR/CE is that bureau's office for Central European affairs.
EUR/RPM is the bureau's office for regional political-military (NATO) affairs. L is the Office
of the Legal Adviser and L/EUR that bureau's office for European matters. PA is the Bureau for
Public Affairs, S/P the policy planning staff. In the intelligence community there are also
abbreviations. NIC is the National Intelligence Council (coordinating the views of all U.S.
intelligence agencies, including the CIA). SOV M is a memo from the CIA office for Soviet
affairs, and EUR M a memo from the CIA office for European affairs, both in the CIA
Directorate for Intelligence (which does intelligence analysis, as distinct from directorates that
carry out clandestine operations or scientific research).
Other commonly used abbreviations in the notes are FBIS-SOV (Foreign Broadcast Informa-
,,tion Service, Soviet Union), Vestnik (Vestnik Ministertsva Inostrannykh del SSR, a journal tljat
ffecorded the official activities of the Soviet Foreign Ministry), and FRUS (Foreign Relatiow^of
tie United States), the principal published archives of U.S. foreign policy.
