Public Records Act Requests

Many of Sacramento State's records are available to the public under the California Public Records Act (California Government Code § 6250 et seq.).

Request Submissions

Public Records Act requests should be submitted to the Public Records Coordinator in writing, in person, or by phone. For clarity purposes as well as to ensure timely receipt and processing, the University strongly encourages written requests. Please visit the University's online public records portal for additional information and to submit a request.

Request Requirements

Requests for public records must reasonably describe identifiable records and must be focused, specific, and clear enough for the University to conduct a reasonable search for the records sought.

The Public Records Act does not require the University to answer questions or to create documents that do not already exist.
