Full Release
On 4 May 2011 the National Archives and Records Administration announced that the Papers would be declassified and released to the Richard Nixon Presidential Library and Museum in Yorba Linda, California on 13 June 2011. The release date included the Nixon, Kennedy, and LBJ Libraries, and the Archives office in College Park, Maryland.
The full release was coordinated by the Archives's National Declassification Center as a special project to mark the anniversary of the report.
The NDC worked with the agencies having classification control over the material to prevent the redaction of the last 11 words of the Papers that would not have been made available. It is unknown which 11 words were at issue.
The Archives released each volume of the Papers as a separate PDF file, available on their website.

Famous quotes containing the words full and/or release:
“... a full notecase,
Dull Bodley, draught beer, and dark blue,
And most often losing the Boat Race ...”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
“As nature requires whirlwinds and cyclones to release its excessive force in a violent revolt against its own existence, so the spirit requires a demonic human being from time to time whose excessive strength rebels against the community of thought and the monotony of morality ... only by looking at those beyond its limits does humanity come to know its own utmost limits.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
