Why Public Records Matter
Public records are the foundation of an open and transparent society. They allow citizens to hold government accountable, help individuals verify important personal information, support legal and business due diligence, and enable researchers and journalists to uncover matters of public interest.
In Tennessee, the Tennessee Public Records Act (TPRA) grants citizens broad rights to inspect and obtain copies of public records maintained by state and local government agencies. Understanding these rights is the first step toward exercising them effectively.

- Researching your family history and genealogy
