Posted by: Timothy Blauvelt <timblauvelt@mail.ru>
The Archives Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia
has recently published the first edition of the Archival Bulletin:
http://archive.security.gov.ge/saarqivo_moambe.pdf
The Archival Department is responsible for the remaining parts of the
Georgian security services (OGPU-NKVD-MVD-KGB) archive as well as the
archive of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Georgia
(formally called the "Presidential Archive"). Both archives are now
open to researchers and interested persons, and the storage facilities
have recently been renovated.
The Archival Bulletin will be a quarterly journal devoted to
displaying to range of materials available and reproducing some of the
more interesting documents. It is also intended as an advertisement
for the archives themselves, to create awareness among foreign and
domestic researchers of what they have to offer.
The website of the Archives Department also has a great deal of
interesting information and documents, but for now the interface is
only available in Georgian: http://archive.security.gov.ge/
Any institution interested in receiving a hard copy of the Archival
Bulletin, or individuals interested in working in the archives should contact:
