Records that were responsive to this request were found in these collection areas—Clinton Presidential Records: WHORM Subject Files, Clinton Presidential Records: WHORM (OP), Clinton Presidential Records: White House Staff and Office Files, Clinton Presidential Records: Automated Records Management System [Email], Clinton Presidential Records: Electronic Daily Diary, Clinton Presidential Records: White House Database, Clinton Presidential Records: Clinton Presidential Appointments, and Clinton Presidential Records: Worker and Visitor Entry System (WAVES). The White House Office of Records Management (WHORM) contains a variety of series created to organize and track documents and correspondence. The WHORM Subject File was compiled by the White House Office of Records Management and is a series of categories designated by a letter/number combination. In addition, there are WHORM, WHORM Counsel, WHORM (CL), WHORM (OP), WHORM (Too Late to Classify), WHORM (Various Offices), and WHORM (Alpha Project) series. Staff and Office files were maintained at the folder level by staff members within their individual offices and document all levels of administration activity. The Automated Records Management System (ARMS) is a database that contains email records of the Executive Office of the President. This system maintained unclassified Presidential email. The ARMS database is comprised of six sub-series of email records called "buckets." The buckets generally represent a specific White House office. The buckets are titled: NPR for National Performance Review, OPD for Office of Policy Development, POTUS for President of the United States, WHO for White House Office, CEA for Council of Economic Advisers, and Default for emails not associated with an office. The OPD bucket contains email created or received by an individual with an Office of Policy Development (OPD) White House user account. The WHO bucket contains email created or received by individual with an Executive Office of the President White House user account not identified as CEA, NPR, or OPD. ARMS email are arranged by topic, there-under by bucket, and there-under chronologically by creation date. The White House Electronic Daily Diary System logs the President’s daily activities as events with participants. Activities include but are not limited to travel, meetings, and telephone calls. Each event was recorded and indexed with a description, a subject code, and start and end time. Electronic Daily Diary records are printed and arranged by Search String, and further arranged chronologically by appointment date. The White House database (WHODB) is a database of White House events and individuals that attended those events. The database also includes a log of individuals that received White House greeting correspondence. Data was entered and maintained by the Office of Correspondence, Social Office, and Office of Public Liaison. WHODB records are printed and arranged by Event Type or Individual, and further arranged chronologically by appointment date. The Clinton Presidential Appointments database (CPA) is a database of individuals that were appointed to various positions. The database is searchable by the name of the appointed individual, the date that they were appointed and the Department or Agency. The Database is divided into two data subsets: S and C; and WHY. Responsive results from the CPA are printed and arranged by data subset, and further arranged chronologically by appointment date. The United States Secret Service maintained two databases to monitor entry and access to White House offices: the Worker and Visitor Entry System (WAVES) and Access Control Records (ACR). The WAVES database was used to manage appointments for entry to White House offices. Visitors were granted issued temporary id badges to monitor their movement around White House offices. WAVES ACR is an access control system that was used to record entry and exit at entry points around White House offices using id/access badges. WAVES records are printed and arranged by traditional WAVES Records or the ACR series and there under chronologically by date. WHORM files are processed at the folder level; whereas Staff and Office files are processed at the folder level, that is, individual documents are not selected and removed from a folder for processing. While this method maintains folder integrity, it frequently results in the incidental processing of documents that are not wholly responsive to the subject area.
