Phone Directory for Alaska Public Records
Alaska public records are governed by the Alaska Public Records Act, codified at AS 40.25.100 through AS 40.25.295. This law gives anyone the right to inspect and copy public records held by state and local agencies. The federal Freedom of Information Act does not apply to Alaska state agencies. Instead, you use the APRA. The Alaska Department of Law maintains a page that explains how the act works and what steps to take when filing a request.
Under AS 40.25.110, public records are open to inspection during regular office hours. Agencies can charge fees when production takes more than five person-hours per month for one requester. Under AS 40.25.115, requests that need computer searches or database reports fall under a separate provision. Agencies may provide these services but are not required to if doing so would take priority over their main duties. The regulations at 2 AAC 96.100 through 2 AAC 96.900 lay out the deadlines and response rules.
