Thanks so much to everyone who has contributed documents so far! We're so excited to see this important collection take shape. If you have COVID-related documents on @documentcloud, please check out our effort with @history_lab_org

Thrilled for @dylfreed, not-on-Twitter-Mitch and the legacy crew. This took a ton of hard work, creativity and dedication to @documentcloud's mission. So excited for the vital journalism and work this will continue to support.
Over the past ~3 years, I've been working hard on a complete rewrite of https://t.co/YX95L3EBOO with @muckrock — a platform that lets you analyze, annotate, and publish document collections. Today, I'm proud to announce we publicly launched the new site and open sourced the code!
Today's the big day! The DocumentCloud Beta is now just officially ... DocumentCloud! No more need to type in https://t.co/ktVQUMuSuq when logging in. Please let us know if you run into issues — most should resolve themselves shortly as DNS catches up.
There’s still time to register for our free webinar this afternoon on policing transparency, in partnership with @OpenTheGov & @HacksHackers. Join 400+ others to learn about using public records to opening law enforcement: https://t.co/a1poOzBDM8 #FOIA
Some site news: After about two months of putting pings on pause, we’ll be automatically and manually checking on the status of outstanding requests with followups https://t.co/ey7sMV5hFu
In the midst of widespread COVID-19 preparation and response, we are all focused on what we can and should do now to keep our families and communities healthy and resilient. As reporters and freedom of information champions, we are doing the same at MuckRock and Outlier.
In response to COVID-19, some cities are easing up on water shutoffs, allowing residents to continue washing their hands. 💧🧼👍
Others won't take action until there's an outbreak.

Grateful for the enthusiasm, kindness and support of everyone involved in getting this set up over the last couple of months. Sad to be cancelling, but everyone's health is always first 💛 ☀️
We're so thankful for all the interest in our 2020 Transparency Science Fair. Unfortunately, given the concerns of #coronavirus, we’ve decided to cancel this year’s event.
Stay safe this #SunshineWeek. Celebrate #opengovernment online & all year.

We wouldn’t know much about Ukraine aid #WithoutFOIA. We *still* don’t know much— that's why we're highlighting things we wouldn't know without access to state & federal public records. Your health, your money and more depend on it. Join us & tag your posts #WithoutFOIA.
