Public Collections
The Public Collections are provided by Crivella West as a public service to give people access to primary source materials in a useful format so that they can be better informed in civil discourse. Our vision is to change the way people think, work and make decisions, and to empower investigators and analysts with modern methods for finding useful, actionable information.

Palin E-Mail Collection II
This collection contains over 24,000 e-mails from former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s administration and was obtained in June 2011, more than two and a half years after the public records request for these materials. Crivella West, at its own expense, converted the paper copies of the e-mails produced back into searchable digital copies and made the digital copies available to the public without charge. In addition, Crivella West has provided analytical tools to organize the documents to help users uncover information of interest. Crivella West is continuing its collaboration with msnbc.com, Mother Jones and Pro Publica.
Palin E-Mail Collection I
This collection was a collaborative effort between Crivella West and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Bill Dedman of MSNBC. This collection of material was obtained in February 2010 pursuant to the Alaska Public Records Act and contains 2,544 e-mails of Sarah Palin, Todd Palin and key Palin staff in the Alaska Governor’s Office.
Bush White House - US Attorney Materials Collection
The Bush White House – US Attorney Materials Collection includes over 5,400 pages of White House and Republican National Committee staff communications relating to the removal of eight sitting U.S. attorneys and over 700 pages of on-the-record transcripts of interviews between House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers and Karl Rove, who was Senior Advisor and Deputy Chief of Staff, and Harriet Miers, who was White House Counsel. These documents serve as an excellent first person case study of 21st century political influence and decision making.
