๐Ÿ“š About the Archive โ–ผ

This archive provides comprehensive semantic search across the full spectrum of Federal Reserve monetary policy documents:

  • FOMC Transcripts โ€” The most detailed record of Committee proceedings, including verbatim deliberations and individual member views
  • Tealbooks, Greenbooks & Bluebooks โ€” Staff analysis of economic conditions, forecasts, and monetary policy alternatives prepared for each meeting
  • Minutes & Records of Policy Actions โ€” Official summaries of policy decisions and the reasoning behind them
  • Policy Statements โ€” Public announcements of FOMC decisions issued after each meeting
  • Beige Books & Redbooks โ€” Regional economic intelligence gathered from business contacts across all Federal Reserve Districts
  • Memoranda of Discussion โ€” Detailed accounts of FOMC meeting discussions (1967-1976)
  • Speeches & Congressional Testimonies โ€” Public communications from Fed Chairs and Governors

Unlike traditional keyword search, this tool uses AI-powered semantic understanding to find relevant passages even when different words are used. Ask questions naturally, as you would to a Fed historian.
