Way back in 1400 AD, 400 years before the Department of the Interior was established, Johannes Gutenberg invented a machine that changed how humans communicated: the moveable type printing press. That invention meant that information could be copied and distributed with a speed and breadth never before seen. 

In the early years of the United States, printing presses were employed by pamphleteers whose writings shaped how the populace thought about the foundations of the country (such as many that informed the Federalist Papers).

Now, nearly 600 years later, we still focus on getting information out quickly and widely. Next Interior is part of that, with its modern-day version of the pamphlets, enabled not by physical presses, but by a digital newsletter platform (Ghost).

Next Interior Memos is our newsletter, which we publis as regularly as needed to provide additional depth and context to the stories that are impacting Interior
