More on Giuliani\’s plan to place the records of his administration in the hands of private organization rather than with NYC:
\’\’He\’s removed his papers so that nobody can go down there and look at them. I think that\’s dead wrong,\’\’ said former mayor Ed Koch, who said he viewed everything he did during his tenure as part of his public record.
Representatives for Giuliani referred calls to Saul Cohen, president of the center. \’\’The whole purpose is to create a repository for scholars and journalists,\’\’ Cohen said, adding that the records – or copies, if the city prefers – would eventually be stored in a library or at a university in the city. Cohen noted that the organization is paying the cost of the archival work and that its work would actually speed public access . . .
