Equipping Everyone: Lessons From Teaching the Public About Public Records
Veteran journalist Rachel Dissell, currently working for Cleveland Documenters and The Marshall Project, helped lead an effort over the summer to teach people how to get and use public records via a text course. More than 500 people signed up and completed the course, which was created with support from the Northeast Ohio Solutions Journalism Collaborative and Linda Austin of NewsTrain.
What are the lessons for journalists? How can public records be made more accessible to the public?
Join us on FOIA Day – Wednesday, March 16 – via Zoom for a special program on public records. More details to come.
