Our mission is simple: to make public records accessible and understandable for everyone.

We believe that an informed public is the foundation of a healthy democracy. Public records exist to promote government accountability and transparency, and every citizen deserves to know how to access them.

Why Public Records Matter

Public records are official documents and pieces of information that are not considered confidential and are generally accessible by the public. Under Idaho's Public Records Act (Idaho Code § 74-101 et seq.) and various federal statutes, a broad range of government-held information is available to the public upon request.

Understanding your rights under these laws can save you time, money, and frustration. At BonnerRecords.us, we help you understand:

What records are publicly available vs. restricted or sealed
How to submit a proper public records request
Your rights and remedies if a request is denied
The timelines and fees associated with records requests
Which local, county, state, and federal agencies maintain specific types of records
