and Records Administration has received more than 80 calls over the past decade from libraries across the country that have found classified materials in their possession, suggesting the mishandling of government secrets is more widespread than initially thought.
When members of Congress donate their papers to a library after retiring, those papers are processed, Mr. Bradley told the House Intelligence Committee. Librarians call the Archives to alert that classified information was discovered, and the agency responds by sending officials to retrieve the materials, according to the transcript.
For example, Sen. Edmund Muskie of Maine — who stepped down from Congress in 1980 and served as President Carter’s secretary of state — included 98 classified documents in a batch he donated to Bates College, Mr. Bradley said.The House Intelligence Committee held the hearing to examine why classified documents keep turning up where they shouldn’t be.
