Press releases*, public statements and publications. Some of the publications held are available in print-out form only rather than finished format and are described as draft copies. These are divided into sub-sections according to a system devised by Amnesty International. These codes consist of a three-letter abbreviation followed by a number, the combination of which represents a particular subject. This makes it possible to file and retrieve documents by broad subject headings. There are seven sections to the non-country part of the AI index:
ACT - ACTION/TECHNIQUES
DOC - DOCUMENTATION/INFORMATION HANDLING
FIN - FINANCE
IOR - INTERGOVERNMENTAL ORGANISLATIONS (UN etc.)
NWS - NEWS
ORG - ORGANISATIONAL (AI)
POL - POLICY (AI)
The collection comprises a vast number of items so only a sample is listed below (usually the more substantial pieces).
