The Assassination Archives and Research Center (AARC) was founded in 1984 in order to provide a permanent organisation which would acquire, preserve and disseminate information on political assassinations.
AARC includes more than 35,000 pages of scanned documents. Most of these relate to the 1963 assassination of President Kennedy, and include a mixture of long-published reports and newly declassified transcripts and other documents. Also contained in the Public Library are the reports of the Church Committee and the Rockefeller Commission, which in the 1970s studied abuses of the intelligence agencies.
The AARC collection also contains relevant material from federal agencies such as the FBI and CIA. Reports, transcripts, and other documents are constantly being added to the AARC Public Library.[1]

- "30 December 2022: Mandate to renew the UN Investigation into the death of UNSG Dag Hammarskjöld"
On 30 December 2022, the UN General Assembly passed Resolution A/77/L.31, which authorises the renewal of the UN’s ‘Investigation into the conditions and circumstances resulting in the tragic death of Dag Hammarskjöld and of the members of the party accompanying him.’ It further authorises the reappointment of the Eminent Person, Judge Mohamed Chande Othman, to lead the investigation.
The Resolution was initiated by Sweden and co-sponsored by 141 Member States (out of 193). The US and the UK did not co-sponsor the resolution.
The Resolution follows Judge Othman’s latest report (A/76/892), which says:
- "…I respectfully submit that the burden of proof to conduct a full review of records and archives resulting in full disclosure has not been discharged at the present time.
- "Indeed, information received from other sources under the present mandate underscores that it is almost certain that these Member States (that is to say, the USA, the UK, and South Africa) created, held or were otherwise aware of specific and important information regarding the cause of the tragic event.
- "That information is yet to be disclosed."[2]
