The Georgia House of Representatives Communications Office, previously known as the Georgia House Public Information Office,
provides media credentials and workspace for journalists who cover the Georgia House of Representatives. The Director of Media
Relations for House Communications, under the direction of the Director of Media Services, supervises the Communications staff
to facilitate the coverage by reporters of legislative activity. The staff provides bill texts and reports of pending legislation
and disseminates press releases and calendars of business to accredited reporters. In addition, the office maintains taped
excerpts from floor debates and online daily activity feeds. The majority of the collection consists of audio recordings (see
separate AV finding aid) documenting the regular and special sessions of the Georgia House of Representatives, as well as
some Senate proceedings, and photographs maintained by the House photographer. This collection includes biographical sketches
of legislators, legislative reports, speeches, research materials, press releases, slide show scripts, audiovisual materials
and photographs.
