The New Mexico Independent, the New Mexico Foundation for Open Government and KNME’s New Mexico In Focus have teamed up to present a free seminar on the Inspection of Public Records Act (IPRA) and how to obtain government information. RSVP now to attend in person.

The seminar will also be webcast live, from 5:30 until 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 1.

It will also be archived here for you to watch any time.

At the seminar, we’ll talk about what’s considered a public record in New Mexico, how to request records, what the law requires of government agencies, and what options you have if you receive a denial.

There are still seats available for the free seminar, which will take place in the KNME-TV studio. If you’d like to join us in person, send an e-mail to gdoland@newmexicoindependent.com.

Participants joining the webcast will have the opportunity to submit questions for the presenters.
